There are plenty of sites like bugtracker that would find the information on a hacker site and then publish it. This would then make the companies part of this organization look very bad in the publics opinion. Sort of like the governments withholding of information over the years. It would also parrallel the failures of the CIA, FBI and NSA over the last 30 years.
