Not so, at least in ARRL contests. The ARRL White Paper on contest
practices states that information casually overheard is fair game for
unassisted operators. It becomes a problem only when the spot info is
fed to you personally. 

In your example, there was no personal feeding of info and the other
operators who overheard the QSO can remain unassisted.
