That’s one expensive joke! I would like to believe that the mass protests it will trigger will be worth every cent but most #academics are seemingly affected by a highly persistent case of Stockholm syndrome so I fear it may be wasted… #AcademicChatter #PeerReview #AcademicPublishing #academia
A fellow #postdoc said she'd **Never** publish in Elsevier or MPDI even with waived APCs. She'd rather leave her work as a #preprint in perpetuity than publish with them. It got me wondering:
1. Do other #academics follow similar publishing embargoes?
2. Can such individual actions impact these publishing giants in any meaningful way?
