@derekberes.bsky.social @julianwalker.bsky.social You say you have evidence the publisher of Skyhorse would devote this profits to anti-vax causes. I cover this space at www.the-geyser.com and have a related story involving preprints and an anti-vax author who also uses Skyhorse. Can you share?

It has always been political, and always anti-democratic — even at the Internet Archive.

2024 was a rough year for OA, and the road ahead looks worse. Is it time to move away from this failing business model?
