Two notes: First, there is no notice of license. The comment regarding "forced extraction" is merely a code comment. It doesn't place any burden on the user for distributing or using the software.
Secondly, regarding reverse engineering being illegal in some places... So is including patented code. :) Since we can't bend to every nation's laws (no manpower plus this would essentially mean ALL software would be unusable) I say unless it's prosecuted it's irrelevant.
