Thanks for the offer. I had forwarded the retraction watch article to my colleagues and we had a chat about this incident. I don’t think we’ll be sending our work to MPDI, ever!

It just breaks my heart to see so many people from eastern Europe and Asian countries exploited for their labour.

Super! Thanks

Hey, I tried to look this up on the web for the original news source, but didn’t find any. Can you please share the link? I’d like to share a more formal news story with my collaboration group.

Science memes are supposed to be funny, not make people cry.

Forgive my ignorance on this, but why don’t whales have obesity problems due to consuming so much krill?

It’s crazy how entitled journals feel to receive free content from researchers, extract free labour in the form of peer review, and then just slap their name on the content, and paywall the knowledge. The very knowledge that was generated from tax payer’s money.

Then they wonder why the academic community thinks poorly of journals and their lackeys.

Argh! my bonappletea moment.

I would love to see tutorials on how to get these services as a website up and running.

I’m a novice myself, so don’t expect an accurate and technical answer. My understanding is that the argument basically boils down to “claim versus veracity” on any vulnerabilities or compromises in the key.

How do you know there aren’t significant security vulnerabilities in the key, or that there aren’t backdoors?

The open source community have some excellent security experts who can check and let us know if all is good, or if something is off.

I don’t expect my potential collaborators and clients to make an account with username and passwords just to view my relevant details and works.

Or have I not understood your suggestion correctly?
