Software Freedom #0: The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose
Open source criteria #6: The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research.
By forbidding some entities from using the software, it violates both Free Software and Open Source and makes itself proprietary.
So it does violate some core rules of both FS an OS. Also the text is so full of legal holes which makes it useless in it's goal too. It only prevents good-intent individuals from contributing and acts as a tool in hand of big evil corpurates.

F you! We even celebrated it in Iran
No. It's not Open source at all!
From Open source definition: "The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research."
