Disclosing, yes. We are talking about selling.

Yep. And it is totally legitimate to have little sympathy for the case, or to criticize the law that allows this kind of things.

Journalists and newspaper editors also do not work for free. More importantly, speech in a newspaper is still protected, even if a copy of the newspaper costs money.
What is the functional difference between selling a copy of a newspaper costing a lot of money per issue detailing the exploit and selling the exploit some other way?
I’m British and I’m fairly sure disclosing a security bug is permitted in the UK.
Also, the court case in question was filed in the USA, so it’s reasonable to assume the law in question would be USA law, not, say, the law in Greece.
