If you had any semblance of respect for the work of others and what is right you would sincerely apologize and shut the project down instead of rolling with it.

Or how about an apology to handle it better with the company moving forward, and engage communication with the repo creator to involve him.

Really it's more of the gesture, to set the example, since we've all seen this before, and AFAIK, there haven't been too many amicable outcomes.
