: Personally, I think that the 50 to 100K price tag effectively keeps the 
: vulnerabilities out of the reach of children. That's responsible enough 
: for my taste anyway.

In theory. 

If the inforamtion is not sent out encrypted, you can practically 
guarantee it is being shared to non-members. Think of CERT a few years 
back. [1]

If a company is a member and sends the mail to an internal mail list, it 
gets sent to Joe Admin who has a friend on the BobCMS dev team, he will 
also likely forward any BobCMS vulns to his friend. This impacts the value 
of the information being shared in the club as it may be patched faster 
than planned.

If a company is a member and leaves the information unencrypted on their 
machines, any compromise of those systems may further disclose it to non 
members.
