In case you weren't aware, a blue hat is typically associated with law enforcement in the US. On its own it'd be no problem, but the logo, the paper, and the comment above correctly pointing out concerns/lack of acknowledgement on your site (until now) really comes off as suspicious.

FWIW, I do believe you just made a few unintentional awkward choices instead of being malicious... But a product associated with something like this is a hard sell.
