Unity did something like this before with built in advert data or such, and some left. Now is drawing a new line, perhaps too far for many more.

My hope is that this backlash extends to all proprietary software eventually. Discord banned 3rd party apps before Reddit thought it was cool to overcharge for the privilage.
