Troll post or shill, same account recently asked “why do people dislike google, they’re only doing legal data saving for stuff you search” and then ignored every bit of legitimate croticism that was handed to them.
Makes no sense to interact with such an account.
They can control your watch time better if you make less decisions. Just be a good little brainless consumer and scroll through endless amounts of bullshit instead of specifically finding one video, then doing something else.
It started with autoplay, wormed it’s way into search feature, and now it’s all over home and subscriptions.
Yea, they are useless when being changed at will, but what if the TOS specifically said “You can disregard future TOS versions and still abide by this old one under certain circumstances” ?
You would still be complying with the Terms of Service, by not honoring the new Terms of Service.
Obviously, this is still a terrible situation regardless, but I am thinking about if the old TOS won’t give already released games a way out of this BS, or even better, may keep a usable Unity version alive for the future. Long term obviously, as many people as possible should ditch unity entirely, but for right now, it looks like a lot of developers will have big trouble starting in just 3 months.
I think the worst part of it all is the trust that is irrevocably broken now.
This is obviously a moronic scummy decision driven by greed, but it also goes directly against past decisions. As per this reddit post, Unity actually had a TOS in action that protected Developers against retroactive changes like this. Specifically, it stated that you could choose to continue using old versions of the engine and comply to the old TOS if an update to the TOS that you disagree with ever happened. This specific part of the TOS was deleted last year.
If they actually try to enforce this new crap on already released games (that accepted an older version of the TOS) then it would seem blatantly illegal (I’m not a lawyer though).
Even if they revert everything by tomorrow, the whole fiasco still shows where Unity’s current interests are, and make the company a liability to deal with for any game developer.
Thanks, I never used an Apple Product, so I didn’t have the contextual infromation!
To me it sounded like a binary state (on/off), as I know it from most phones I’ve seen.
Which humans are you blaming exactly?
I don’t think it’s fair to blame the users. They toggle bluetooth off and think it’s off. How are they supposed to know “Bluetooth Off” means “Only some amount of Bluetooth is off”?
And I don’t think designing a convincing phishing device is that much of a leap in logic. Bluetooth is off, so maybe the notification is legit from apple and needs authority for a connection?
If you blame the designers who left a backdoor in the bluetooth, then yea that’s fair.
You know what, that’s fair.
I saw a lot of discussion in the comments about their workers pay, but honestly, they make a great product. Wouldn’t wanna be counting pennies in someone elses pockets. I donated a one time 25 bucks, I hope they will continue to ask for donations whenever they are in dire need of server running money.
