I always knew this situation, but kept my mouth shut until this official response from him.

Which is stolen property. Ive been dealing with kits and debug builds of games for over 10 years now. All development units that are purchased MUST be returned to the platform owner. Selling kits, that are still MS/Sony/Nitty property is still wrong, and they have legal rights
I can be wrong, but as far as I heard, if the developer goes bankruptcy, the contract between them and console owner doesn't have a legal force anymore. I also heard that if someone gives this stuff to recyclers, then the contract also looses its legal force.

So the units even if the company goes under should be returned (they aren't in most cases) but as Sony showed with the pro devkit that was sold as auction, it's their property, they can reclaim it at any point. Recycling they are marked to be destroyed, and if not should go back

I've gotten quite a few handful of betas over the years, but to be safe, you wait until the product is well out of support to show publically, or wait until the company is out of business. But in this case the game is still in support which is a big no no in their eyes.
