In all fairness, this does follow protocol as established by the ICAO. At this point the primary responsibility to investigate the crash would be on Iran and Ukraine.
Boeing would formally come into the picture if equipment failure is deemed a likely contributing factor in the crash.
This does not mean that the investigators won't share data or consult with the manufacturer during the cause of the investigation.

The way the article frames it makes me think this is aimed as a hit piece against Iran, to make the public suspect them of having shot down the plane. But I wouldn't blame them not wanting to cooperate with Boeing, a US military-industrial company, right after the US assassinated one of their top officials. They probably worry the black box could be used to fake evidence.
