Data ARE freely available on the web. Basically all of it.
Sceptics (I hate calling them sceptics: they don't deserve this term) like to repeat they aren't but don't be fooled by them.
The 'skeptic' branding was a great move on their part, but it's simply not true. It's akin to calling young earth creationists 'evolutionary skeptics'.

However, it yet again sounds like a problem that could be solved by publishing all data freely on the web?
