@Canageek Which is an argument for a whole lot of other stuff that isn't "don't do OA".
Many more people have been screwed by companies in worse ways than you or I, as highly privileged people working in the academy, will ever suffer.
Avoiding OA maybe solves the problem for you (but it won't will because companies can always just buy access), and it sure doesn't solve those the problems caused by capitalism for everyone else.
Stop me if you've heard this :oa: rant from me before
@Canageek Yes, the citadel argument, you said it before. It's still bogus.
So how do you get your funding? From a Government? How do Governments get their funding — from taxpayers. Companies pay tax, so companies are funding your research.
This is an argument for taxing companies properly, not avoiding OA.
