Game developers using the Unity Engine are crying afoul over Unity’s pricing structure. Why are cars the worst product category for user privacy? A cyberattack shut down MGM Resorts for some time. And why the U.S. government is blasting Google for paying $10 billion a year to cut out search rivals.
• Unity has updated its pricing structure, leading many within the gaming & developer community to grow frustrated with the game engine. Kyle Orland of Ars Technica stops by the show to explain what happened.
• Misha Rykov of the Mozilla Foundation joins the show to discuss the Mozilla Foundation’s Privacy Not Included guide and why cars are not the best product for a user’s security and privacy.
• Jason Howell shares how a cyberattack against MGM Resorts shut down its services for a period of time.
• And Mikah Sargent talks about the U.S. government’s anti-trial against Google as the company is taken to trial over its monopolistic grasp on online searching.
