Given that wording I'll take this as an opportunity to pipe in on the matter. Taking the name of another organization through backdoor "gotcha" legal manoeuvres (yes, I read Cory's post about the registration) is an underhanded, dirty technique, and you should have known better.

While technically (and possibly legally) speaking you were within your right to say "this organization is not currently registered properly and we have serious doubts about their transparency & motivations" it does not make it ok to simply barge in & dismantle their foundation through loopholes & stunts like this.

If you wanted to call them out on their shortcomings/organization structures there are much better ways of doing so. Given your social media, political & legal savvy you had a number of better options at your disposal, many of which would have allowed you to take the high road. You choose not to and now you're being rightly chastised for it.
