I don't believe it is extortion since all he is asking them to do is fix their own vulnerability. I believe extortion requires the demand of money or services in exchange for action/inaction.

  Doubtful, or a lot of consumer demands are technically extortion. In particular, the model jury rules for extortion tend to refer specifically to property (usually money).
