Exactly, they aren't going to respect your FLOSS license conditions.

FLOSS license conditions aren't very well respected even in the West. Hopefully the lawsuit against Vizio will set a precedent that makes it possible for users to enforce them as well as copyright holders.

I agree that there are many violations, but I also think that there is a lot of compliance, due to both goodwill and fear.
