Unity May Never Win Back the Developers It Lost in Its Fee Debacle::Even though the company behind the wildly popular game engine walked back its controversial new fee policy, the damage is done.
Unity could get them back if they fired their CEO, John Riticello
don’t forget: calling devs idiots
Nope, don’t care.
Yeah, I know. I just want them to fire the asshole anyway.
Understandable

We don’t know if they can do it. They walked their plan back before it could be tested in court. There’s a very good chance that what they were doing (particularly their changing the terms of an agreement without any action from the other parties) was illegal.
Imagine if Microsoft did the same thing with Windows? Allowing software companies to just suddenly change the rules like that could be a terrible precedent. They would probably get hit with antitrust for like the 50th time since they opened their doors.
