    Dear Nick,<br>
    <br>
    I agree that the fact that these companies have denied involvement
    may need to be highlighted. However, I'd very much appreciate that
    while making such a posting as above you declare your job as
    representing the interests of at least some of these companies.
    Unlike what you may assume, not every reader would know that. This
    is a normal tenet of public discussions. Thanks.<br>
    <br>
