If you don’t have a cooperative relationship with the org then I wouldn’t apply this rule, no. But most org criticism I see where someone didn’t run it by the org is in cases where someone has either no preexisting relationship with the org (beyond being within the EA community) or one that’s sufficiently cooperative that sharing would have been fine.
Isn’t whether there is, in fact, a cooperative relationship likely to be precisely the issue at hand, in many cases of criticism of EA orgs?
