At least with FSFE you can ask us in public (like here) or via the contact point for licence-questi...@fsfe.org (see https://fsfe.org/about/contact.en.html) That is not an "authoritative" statement of course, but just calling out may not be enough and might even be advertisment for a missbehaving company. In my personal experience distributing the information is another thing, like adding it to the Wikipedia page if the software has one or bringing it to the attention of distributions or other users.
