> _not_ in the TOS! It's a side-channel communication/agreement I never implied it was otherwise. However if we look at their TOS from 2019 (the time of this blog post) they do have this: > if the Updated Terms adversely impact your rights, you may elect to continue to use any current-year versions of the Unity Software (e.g., 2018.x and 2018.y and any Long Term Supported (LTS) versions for that current-year release) according to the terms that applied just prior to the Updated Terms (the “Prior Terms”).

I have created a mirror of this more up-to-date version at https://github.com/thaliaarchi/unity-termsofservice. Here's how to “cook”[1] an archive from the vault, if you want to do it yourself: curl -X POST https://archive.softwareheritage.org/api/1/vault/git-bare/swh:1:rev:28fdae008c61d9… wget https://archive.softwareheritage.org/api/1/vault/git-bare/swh:1:rev:28fdae008c61d9… --content-disposition tar xf swh_1_rev_28fdae008c61d98d0d9ec55b8cc016ce61809f58.git.tar git clone swh:1:rev:28fdae008c61d98d0d9ec55b8cc0
