A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Creative harm? As in switching out one graph for the another? Mixing up the table of contents? Maybe adding a sentence or two every few years when that research paper is in the public domain?

Who wouldn't be able to pursue a credible education otherwise.
Publishers should shut the fuck up and take the money that is given to them by rich kids parents. Everyone else can't afford their shit. They're making the decades old mistake of thinking that everyone that downloads their books freely would've paid for it.
They don’t care if those who can’t afford would be without. They want to squeeze every dime out of every student they can, it’s their business model.
