Even Apple did similar with their proposed CSAM scanning, and after the uproar, walked that decision back. So at least Unity is at least giving a head nod towards decency. It could definitely be worse. Imagine if Musk was in charge.

“The good news is that I’ve seen worse, the bad news is that not a lot”.

I’m sure some executive did even worse. But a scorched Earth cash grab is very bad business. No need to spin it positively.

If Musk was in charge of Unity, he'd cut 90% of the staff and just charge $8/mo for a blue sign on your game.

PS: for those without a sense of humor, this is a joke.

To be fair, cutting staff seems like it would be reasonable. How do they have ~2x the number of employees that Epic has? I know the ad side probably takes some numbers but Epic actually makes games.

From an outsider it seems horribly mismanaged.

No it’s not a joke but what will really happen.
