They addressed that in FAQ update. They have also previously committed to not retroactively change ToS for the version you downloaded (https://old.reddit.com/r/Unity3D/comments/16hjic6/unitys_stance_on_retroactive_tos_changes_in_2019/ https://old.reddit.com/r/Unity3D/comments/16hjic6/unitys_sta...) but they changed their mind.
Given that history I would not put much trust in one vague answer in FAQ without at least consulting lawyer first (including asking how much it would cost to defend if Unity lawyers disagree with your lawyer's take).
And even in the current FAQ answer it's essentially fully up to them to determine what is fraudulent installation or if the install was part of install bombing.
- ldoughty 3y agoI agree with all those points... It certainly concerns me as a new-to-unity developer... but most articles (like this one) are not talking about fraudulent installs.. they jump to "we're bankrupt" and "abandon ship" without much details, context, or supporting statements... and that's what bothers me... I'd love to hear WHY.. not knee-jerk reactions... Someone else mentioned that some people use "Free" to also mean ad-supported or micro-transaction... That wouldn't be my definition, but I suppose that is a fair concern at-a-glance for an article that says a "free" game can bankrupt them... That's a lot better than most of the comments I've seen on this topic.
