Tomorrow is the season finale in Serbia. After two years of protests and some of the biggest demonstrations in the region, I hope the people of Serbia will kick out Vučić as clearly as the people of Hungary kicked out Orban.

An article on the Fall of Scientific American.
Scientific publishers should be independent. But:
"Springer Nature felt that Scientific American’s criticism of Trump was threatening their broader business—selling subscriptions to their scientific journals. The federal government was a major client."
Scientific American will be for many Semantic Web researchers a special place because of that one article by Tim Berners-Lee , Jim Hendler , and Ora Lassila . Thus it's painful to read about this.
Other friends will find it interesting as a story about unionization and how Springer Nature hired Littler Mendelson.
Sad and long story.
