    They removed pure text that was almost certainly less than a GB of disk space and similarly negligible bandwidth cost that they weren’t even hosting themselves because not enough people looked at it. They just happened to realize this and ensure it was removed during a period of high public scrutiny and internal company strife that was relevant to the aforementioned TOS and the changes it’s repository tracked.

    Anybody who trusts Unity after this is a mark.

      Less than a GB, yeah, I certainly hope so. Just imagine a ToS more than a billion character long.

      Apparently King James Bible is around 3 million.
