You really just base you sense of justice on legality. You really would just watch as landlords increase rents for 200% just for greed and watch people go homeless and then feel smugly superior when you condemn and report said homeless for throwing shit in the windows of the landlords. A Tennant might even have the chance to move elsewhere. Unity devs might not have such a easy path out.
You really are a awful person without a heart. Call me a psycopath all you like.
And you can't see that violence is not just when somebody bleeds. Also you really can't imagine that anything that isn't legal is a justified action to a wrongdoing.
just wondering, what is your opinion of Palestine struggle against Israeli encroachment and occupation of their lands? ๐
If you starting point is "it's just money lol", then beside your general screwed sense of justice this is another major problem in you thinking. Many people have made it blatantly clear that this is not just some price increase that devs can just wave away. It can cause cost of millions to devs at worse and that's bad if you have a tight and fixed budget and you are years in development. It's also a breach trust that will make nobody want to use unity ever again and that's bad when people have sometimes invested their lives in it. That's bad for Unity too yes, but it's bigger that just one company. I have already told you this and why I sympathise with the devs.
