Also is it not blackmail to say 'we will tell your boss unless you give us $10,000'?

It's not illegal if they lobby it and pass the law.

Actually, blackmail will probably always be illegal (although some argue it shouldn't be...>_>). And to answer Rath's question, this seems to be a textbook example of blackmail. 18 U.S.C. § 873
