I have seen people saying it was intentional, I spoke to someone at Activision support about it, they said it's a glitch.
Here is the conversation:

Eric D. Thank you for contacting Activision support, my name is Eric. Can I please begin with the game and console you are contacting us about, your gamertag, and whether you are a Call of Duty: ELITE free or premium subscriber?
Me removed
Eric D. Thank you very much. How can I assist you today?
Me I have seen posts around stating that recently all elite premium members have been upgraded to founders, I was just wondering if this is intentional or a glitch as it dosen't seem very fair to the people who purchased the hardened edition or elite early.
Eric D. That is not intentional; It is an issue that the developers are aware of and are working on a fix for.
Me That means that they have also got the 500 xp clan bonus and clan leaders are taking advantage of this by asking them to leave and then join again for the xp. Will this be punishable?
Eric D. I don't know how issues like that will be handled since this is such a recent problem.
Eric D. It's definitely possible that punishment could be given out but I can't say for sure at this time.
Me Alright, thank you for your time.
Eric D. You're welcome! Was there anything else that I can help you with today?
Me That's all, thanks.
Eric D. All right, then thank you again for contacting Activision Support! Have a nice day!
It is unintentional and a glitch, so make use of it while you can, but beware there is a possibility of punishment for abusing the 500xp glitch, but personally I don't think there will be, at worst just the XP added from people who were unintentionally upgraded being removed.
