FCC verifies that a product running a certain software follows FCC rules
in terms of frequencies, power level, signal bandwidth, etc...
It doesn't check (and I don't see how it could check it) how difficult it
is for a user to get out of range.

I really doubt Broadcom made it difficult to reverse engineer their driver
just to prevent users from breaking FCC rules.
