You got the first part correct. Read my first post where I ask why they are using the crests and whether they have permission.
Regarding whether an organization can dictate the use of its marks, you are drawing false conclusions from my post. Fair use is a DEFENSE to a copyright infringement suit. It has not always been held to be a valid defense to unauthorized use.
Yes, someone could find them somewhere online, but why make it easy when this person doesn't want to tell us what they are using the marks for or whether they have permission? Why can't we ask questions before we hand out information? Like I said before a lot of orgs have rules about where crests can be used.
