    After decades of dealing with Elsevier, Springer-Verlag and the rest; I hope they all go out of business.

    The funny thing is, if the guy wasn't quite so greedy with this racket, probably no one would notice. Surely if the number of your publications and citations shoots up exponentially and surpasses those of much more well-known scientists, folks are bound to ask questions. I wonder if this got out of control or whether he really did think it's a good idea to collude his way to such prominence.

    Makes sense. Economics isn’t science, it’s numerology that justifies exploiting workers.

    It'd be nice to check whether some llms still have "memory" of the paper she has deleted

    It will be interesting to see how Goodell's citations drop going forward.

    3 down, thousands to go.This will continue until Elsevier and their 3 or 4 peers are removed from the academic publishing process entirely.

    I am not arguing against the facts expressed in the piece. This is not an area in which I have any expertise.However, I am a bit uncomfortable with the pithy language used. It's possible (likely, even), that the fired editors deserve the pithiness, but it's still a bit weird to read that kind of prose, in a scientific context.
