Yeah I can't see this policy staying legal for long. Even if it wasn't blatant Highway robbery, Don't these tech companies have lobbyists that can push to ban this kind of shit? Because this screws over the company and not the fan base. I mean Publishers are going to have a hard time finding Talent if they want a game based in unity, but the developers are worried about being bankrupted simply because too many people are trying to get the game working by uninstalling and reinstalling it.

And what if the company is already defunct, but their game is still on Steam because the publisher owns the ip? Who exactly is going to Pony up?
