Update: Editor of IEEE Sensors who refused to retract the plagiarized paper & insisted correctness, permit authors to publish corrections with new references to help them. Checking linkedin of Editor found him friend of main author. Typical @SensorsCouncil @IEEEorg corruption.

Left: Rodriguez et al., 2019, doi.org/10.3390/s19204… Right: Rodriguez, 2021, arxiv.org/abs/2101.04770 The most parsimonious explanation seems to be that the author has plagiarised his own lead-authored article using synonym software to get a preprint, with hilarious results.
If u still publishing in #Elsevier,remember sharing ur own paper is restricted & use ur own paper in teaching only if library is subscribed to #Elsevier.Why do we do this to ourselves? #AcademicChatter #openaccess #AcademicTwitter #NoElsevier #PhDLife #profTwitter #ScienceTwitter

The impact factor is indeed a toxic indicator. It has been successful because it structures a commercial market under the pretense of addressing the evaluation of research results. Without the IF, no journal market, and no journal treated as a commodity!!!

APCs ranging from 1,149 to 4,479 USD (+surcharge) 🤦♂️ "In my view this level of APC is excessive, which is why I call this Fool’s Gold Open Access."
We need to reduce our dependency on legacy for-profit publishers like #Elsevier, to start saying "that is enough",to decline the big deal &to use this money to invest in ethical approaches to academic publishing #AcademicTwitter #profTwitter #icanhazpdf #phdfriend #ScienceTwitter

So much wrong here: an ad, yet masquerading as tweet. Open Science/OA being outmanoeuvered by legacy publishers. Gold OA a gift: it requires high APCs, promotes "double dipping", and allows legacy publishers to appropriate OA mantle. Elsevier makes monopoly returns. @openscience
Received honorarium after reviewing several grant proposals,most don't encourage funding,doing this for last 3 years with same funding agency. Is paying for peer-review compromise integrity?acceptance /rejection depends on work not reviewer #AcademicChatter #icanhazpdf #phdfriend
Please #Digitalforensics #cybersecurity #Malware #Cryptography & #DFIR people send your latest research results to the Cybersecurity Journal Affiliated with The Institute of Information Engineering (IE) & Chinese government,Brought to you by "for-profit" publisher @SpringerNature
Trashy #openaccess title from @ElsevierConnect to make us think #openaccess expensive & failure. if this paper written for coursework,clear fail.Not published in journal. It didn't even cite used data,just cited collusion ring papers #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter #profTwitter
#papermill industry has been using Facebook for years, Now started innovative marketing using #LinkedIn. Anyone need to buy themselves an authorship ? #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter #profTwitter #icanhazpdf #phdfriend #ScienceTwitter #PhDVoice @PhDspeaks #PhDchat #PhDLife
