minus-squarebmaxv ( bmaxv@noc.social ) linkfedilinkarrow-up4·10 months ago@supersquirrel I agree completely. The intent, setup, participation (including springer nature and everyone who publishes there), isn’t “dumb” though. It’s malicious, evil, negligent or whatever you want to call it. I dislike “stupid” because it leaves that room for innocent mistakes and unintentional behavior. People didn’t care for ethical standards and this is the outcome.
