The problem with "name and shame" is that people don't always remember the parties right.
More than 10 years ago, a larger company stole my start-up's work, including our typos. We (when I say "we" in this comment I mean all the people in the start-up) internally agreed to handle it through the court system. Anyway, we had a loose cannon, and at a security convention he was telling everyone he could how that other company stole our stuff (and went directly to the competitor's booth to bitch at them). A year later, people remembered that the software was stolen, but they didn't remember which party was which -- half of them thought our company was the thief. [1]
This was before the days of blogs, so you might have better luck today with the public getting basic facts right, but you're spinning a giant gun around and it just might end up pointed at your face when you are done.
[1] This was among the reasons we decided to handle it through the courts. It was also the last time said loose cannon ever went to a conference during my tenure there.
