I think this situation/comments have been blown out of proportion a bit. To me, the situation reads more like: Muse Group have held back on litigating over copyright infringement (whether that is a valid claim or not) because they are aware of the alleged infringer's precarious political situation, however they've turned a blind eye for too long and are now in a difficult position where they either lose money where they are paying for licences for content that this developer has allegedly stolen, or they litigate to protect their interest and risk having the guy deported. It seems like they're just trying to be frank and level with the guy. Maybe it's just that text isn't the best way to get this message across, or the CPO's communication style doesn't work for some folks. But I don't think it's like an "offer you can't refuse" mobster tactic as some would like to claim.
