    Every single thing they wrote there is anchored on “trust us” and trusting them is what we used to do until they broke that trust, massivelly so.

    So far they have done zero to restore the trust: their entire reaction has been to pull back on the face of the massive pushback and there is not even genuine remorse at having tried it - they purelly adjusted their demands in response to the reaction, rather than show true regret, make amends and make sure people have at least some way of trusting it won’t happen again.

    It’s like the bully that’s about to punch the little kid on the face for his lunch money and a teacher appears so has to stop. He didn’t “learn his lesson” and nothing has happenned to convince him to “never do it again”, so he’s just going to try it again at an occasion when it looks more likely to succeed.

    As others pointed out, the current CEO and board at Unity must go and a legally ironclad guarantee they can’t try this again needs to be put in place before any serious game developers are willing to risk using Unity again.
