Note this kind of thing happens all the time. VRChat instituted EAC to prevent client modifications late last year. Hundreds of developers and tens of thousands of users all had their mods stop working overnight. Projects that dozens of devs had poured countless hours into became instantly and utterly worthless. It’s insane that this is what the internet has become.
- wstuartcl 4y agoWhile I do get what you are saying VRChat shutdown is a pretty poor match to this scenario. the TOS for that always had a clear verboten against modifying the client and network traffic via 3rd party apps/patches. In Twitters case, the API was shut down (with no warning) and then the TOS was updated to make the integrations verboten only well after there was a fairly huge backlash and late response of "clients were disabled that were violating api 'rules'" did not hold up against the actual rules in place. I really do get the whole move fast and break things model, however this is Musk taking that model to mean put on blinders and run full speed while holding scissors in a crowded room with many walls -- consequences be damned.
