Elsevier? The company that makes money from public funded research? The one that does basically nothing and earns tons of money on the back of tax payers and free labor of authors, reviewers and editors.

Hopefully open access policies will bring an end to the exploitative business model of science “publisher”.

That can only happen if we stop giving a shit about impact factors (and remove it from legal hiring requierements in some countries) and when big name PIs stop giving excuses like ‘I want my research to be read’ as if that wouldn’t happen in the journals that are more appropriate for the topic they publish in.
