A wild prediction about Unity

So, Unity's just made it so that any install of a Unity game will cost a game publisher $0.20 for every time that a game is installed (past a threshold, of course).

Now, this makes one thing really clear. Piracy now directly hurts the game studios making games. By making it so that the developers have to pay $0.20 for every install of their game, piracy now isn't removing theoretical sales, but instead taking actual money from the developers.

WILD PREDICTIONS WITH NO EVIDENCE BEHIND THEM: With Unity making it so that piracy can theoretically bankrupt a game studio, many developers will be desperately searching for a solution to stop piracy at any means necessary.

And here's where Unity would swoop in with a new free tool, called some form of "Unity DRM". This new program would be sold as a combination anti-cheat and DRM package, making it an obvious choice for developers wanting to stop piracy along with cheating and modding.

However, most client sided anti-cheats and DRM software are very, very invasive. They have more power on your computer than you do. That's not a prediction either, that's just true. An admin level rootkit running on your computer, that Unity would be in charge of.

They could then use this theoretical DRM/anti-cheat in order to collect massive amounts of data on users. People often forget that they run their own ad agency. Unity Ads would get tons upon tons of new amounts of user data, all with a simple new agreement that you would be forced to sign in order to install any game with Unity DRM.

Again, all just predictions. This post is only so I can make the most ridiculous "I told you so" post if it turns out to be true.

Unity was my introduction to actually writing code, and has gotten me super far in my journey as a developer. I'm really sad to see it destroy itself in this way, and the fact that this prediction isn't even all that far-fetched is honestly super scary to me.

Moon 235-Leaf-Fall

Shinepaw (10) hopes that Eaglepaw finds his way back to the Clan.  She’s not sure what life will look like without her brother by her side.  However, the apprentices’ den is still full because Xhosa’s (103) kits have been made apprentices!  Streampaw (6) is apprenticed to Spotfoot (16).  He hopes he’ll do something to impress the Clan on his first day.  Maybe he could catch a big fat rabbit?  Or chase off a fox!  That’ll show the Clan he’s the best apprentice anyone’s ever seen!  His brother, Almondpaw (6), is a little more reserved.  He’s apprenticed to Vaxxstreak (121).  With so many apprentices and so few powered warriors, a lot of powerless cats are ending up with powered apprentices.  It’s challenging to train them to control something they themselves don’t understand.  Primcrest (77), unlike her son, does enjoy having kits around camp. She’s reminded of just how cute they are because of Nettlekit (4).  Xhosa, on the other paw, is a bit fed up with all the young cats. She thinks that Skippaw (10) is a rumor-monger and that Palepaw (14) is too stuck up. The kits have decided that they are obsessed with Amberwhisker (94).  Lilackit (2) loves climbing all over him and Rootkit (2) charms him with his big green eyes. Almondpaw is trying to get to know his mentor and tell him a story, but Vaxxstreak is noticeably distracted.  Maybe because he’s old.  Apparently, not every cat loves Bluepaw (10).  Shinepaw is telling jokes about her.  Brightpaw (10) understands that her friend is just stressed after the loss of her brother, but she wishes she would be a bit nicer to her siblings.  The fearsome foursome are still quite close, and Frostpaw (10) feels most like herself when she’s around Bluepaw.

Julia: Sorry if it's rather belated, but Happy Halloween! Or Happy Spooky Month if you love Halloween as much as I do! Anyone dressing up for the occasion or doing anything fun? I decided to dress up as Lucoa from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid anime and finally try to win at FNAF! Maybe. Bonnie still gives me nightmares, not gonna lie.

Trojan Gh0st RAT tem como alvo usuários chineses do Windows por meio de site falso do Chrome

O trojan de acesso remoto conhecido como Gh0st RAT foi observado sendo distribuído por um “dropper evasivo” chamado Gh0stGambit como parte de um esquema de download drive-by visando usuários do Windows que falam chinês.
