It's the developer's *choice* whether or not they want to implement/integrate anti-piracy measures. Plus, many anti-piracy measures have bad reputations among the customer base, so choosing not to include them for even commercial games can be a legitimate decisions.
But now Unity wants to charge developers per-install regardless of whether the install was legitimate, duplicate, whatever. This costs Unity *nothing*, yet they choose to charge developers on such arbitrary and unnecessary grounds.
