Just to echo what Marc said, we are so sorry for our earlier actions.

We are so sorry you took our earlier actions so poorly.

Genuinely disappointed at how our removal of the ToS has been framed across the internet.

Genuinely disappointed that our removal of the TOS was noticed and publicized across the internet.

This new Runtime Fee policy will only apply beginning with the next LTS version of Unity shipping in 2024 and beyond. And Marc's response is true, you can stay on the terms applicable for the version of Unity you are using as long as you keep using that version.

This new Runtime Fee policy will only apply beginning with the next LTS version of Unity, whereafter we will do everything we can to invalidate prior versions of Unity, and force upgrades on users.

We do have a fireside chat ongoing with Marc where he will answer some Q's live

We do have a fireside chat ongoing with Marc where he will answer whichever Qs live we find convenient to our narrative, and ignore any that are not.

Please forget about our attempted greed, so we can try again in a stealthier manner in the near future, at our earliest convenience.

Oh shit, our lawyers have just informed us (again, but this time I listened) that trying to change terms of service after they've already been agreed is actually not legal and could get us in trouble.
