Hello,
Names and addresses are public domain. If you're claiming the .xlsx file
is copyrighted, even that is questionable and would fall under fair use
anyways as the thread is a scathing mockery of your organization's total
incompetence. Regardless, data and facts cannot be copyrighted and the
actual information is simply not yours to assert ownership of. I would
be very interested to see if the Copyright Office would grant you the
registration number you'd need to even sue for this.
I believe in good faith you do not own the article in contest. Send
servicing to the following.
