Make it profitable to share your findings.
Currently if you discover or understand something new, there are no easy ways you can benefit from it. You can't build a product because you don't have the money. You can't sell it to someone because nobody is buying. So all you can do is charge money however you can.
And with information, offering "consulting" services is the most profitable approach. Make the docs as cryptic as possible then charge a fee for helping people understand it. If you want to fix this problem, create a way to make research profitable. Until then, people will always protect their best asset: information.
