The Unity pricing debacle has taken an unfortunate, dangerous turn. In a new report from Bloomberg, the company has reportedly canceled a town hall meeting due to what the publication called credible death threats. According to Bloomberg, Unity CEO John Riccitiello was set to address employees Thursday morning, but the companywide meeting was canceled and two of Unity’s offices were closed because of the alleged threats.

You should sort of expect to get some strong reactions when things are difficult economically and you make a statement saying, "sorry peasants, I need a shareholder bonus so your livelihood has to go. Also, fuck you."

If the threats are to him, dunno, he's done amazing harm. I'll just say jury is out on how appropriate they are in his case.
