Did you read the part in the article where he his legal forbidden from starting up a company or even working at a startup?
He should have just stuck with the job until he found another one that would support his green card efforts. Switching careers part way through he should have known was risky. The lack of information that is presented on him for his reasoning besides "Well they weren't sponsoring me anyways" seems pretty lack luster and not well thought out for someone who is well educated and as intelligent as himself. This article seems like a desperate plea after making a mistake.
I hope he finds a legal way to stay in the country, or come back but the article was pretty whiny about something he already should have known.
