Mr Hydara,

As someone who has complained about the Observer using my posting, my
objection was that they used the information without asking or giving credit
as to the source, and infact, in addition,  their presentation of the
material implied it to be a letter to the Editor, which adds
misrepresentation to the allegations.
 I think that if those who use postings from the net do as you have indicated
above, then I see no reason to object to them using any information. I
commend you for that.
