I know there are lots of people at fault here, but the fact that such an obviously unethical article got published is another illustration of how publishers have completely lost control of what they're publishing in the push for APCs.

Great news from across the ocean! 🎉 Another concrete step forward for #DiamondOA, with a new initiative to map and support #community-led, fee-free publishing in the U.S. Looking forward to seeing the outcomes of this project 👀

We invented borders and invented immigration and then invented ways of making immigration illegal and we invented the relationship between crime and immigration. Immigration “enforcement” is literally an hysterical exercise in the pursuit of a fantasy, it is a mental disorder.
