As I posted elsewhere, I appreciate the moxie of this lawsuit against Elsevier, Wolters Kluwer, Wiley, Taylor & Francis, Springer Nature, and STM, but am not so sure this argument will go far, at least in its current form. The argument is made of three major components as described in the linked statement release.

The first part alleges that the unpaid labor of peer review is explicitly linked to an "ability to get their manuscripts published in the defendants’ preeminent journals." There is some truth here, but litigants may have trouble finding explicit wording of such a proposition by the defendants. Maybe you rely on something implicit in the culture, but then there are also 'preeminent' non-commercial journals that you might also lay the same charge.

This semester, I am encouraging my students to copy & paste other writer's phrases without attribution in their written assignments as a reminder that plagiarism began as a small batch artisanal craft and we refuse to let LLMs strip us of our humanity ✊ 😠

In my scholarly communication course, we are covering some library basics like "just-in-time" & "just-in-case" collection strategies. When you consider Open Access publishing as a global collection strategy, how we go about choosing what to make OA best resembles a just-in-case collection strategy. But a just-in-time strategy may be the better of the two options.

Guys, bad news about your collected volume. They've got hundreds of monks making copies of it. Priests trained on those copies are going around, summarizing and interpreting for people who can't access or understand the primary source. Going to post my theses on it all very soon.
