Hell yeah.
‘Too greedy’: mass walkout at global science journal over ‘unethical’ fees
Entire board resigns over actions of academic publisher whose profit margins outstrip even Google and Amazon
More than 40 leading scientists have resigned en masse from the editorial board of a top science journal in protest at what they describe as the “greed” of publishing giant Elsevier.
The entire academic board of the journal Neuroimage, including professors from Oxford University, King’s College London and Cardiff University resigned after Elsevier refused to reduce publication charges.
