@ndloubere Great to open this discussion, IMO. I was not aware of the censorship and data selling issues - sounds like major problems. I think the most enthusiastic OA supporters imagined the present model to be an intermediate step towards what's now called "platinum OA", but AFAICS there is not much momentum for making platinum the standard.
