It's akin to a TV comedy when someone grabs a contract and eats it thinking it will void the contract. If they do try to sue anyone using older versions with that TOS, it should be fun to see how it plays out in court.
Unfortunately, unity has enough money to drag heels in court, and out spend many smaller companies that would try
I wonder if they would be able to team up with eachother against unity.
I'm not a lawyer, and I don't know exactly where everyone involved resides. That being said, I imagine pooling resources might help with those costs, if possible. There's certainly more than two gaming companies that are being screwed by this.
To be honest, I would contribute to a legitimate go fund me for them. Fuck unity.
