Update. Another article made it through peer review (this time at #JAMA Network) asserting that the #NIH policy requires NIH-funded authors to pay #APCs.
"Cost of Article Processing Charges to Adhere to National Institutes of Health Public Access Policy."
http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jamainternmed.2026.3463
(#paywalled)The authors are actually confused and inconsistent on this point. On the one hand, they make clear that compliance through PubMed Central (#PMC) is free of charge. On the other, they say (in Table 1) that green OA articles needn't pay APCs to comply with the older NIH policy but must pay APCs to comply with the new NIH policy.
PS: Some publishers -- like Springer Nature and Taylor & Francis -- do charge APCs to NIH-funded authors to publish in their journals, and don't let those authors publish in their no-APC non-OA journals. They even frame those APC-based paths to publication as ways to comply with the NIH policy. But the NIH policy requires deposit in PMC (#GreenOA), which is free of charge. These publishers are charging APCs to publish in their journals, which is entirely optional and not required by any policy.

CW: AI, LLM, Anthropic Copyright Infringement
Apparently #Anthropic has been ordered to pay ca. $1.5 billion for #copyright #infringement on about 500K #books they used to train #Claude along with the order to destroy any #unauthorized copies & #pirated files they possess:
Considering the amount of money they stand to make from Claude's continued existence, this seems like little more than a slap on the wrist to me. Also, I find it hard to believe how it will be possible to enforce the order to destroy the illicit files.

Walled Culture the book, three years on
Walled Culture the book (free digital versions available) was launched just over three years ago. A few weeks afterwards, I talked with journalist and editor Maria Bustillos about the book and its background, as part of the Internet Archive’s Book Talk series. That interview has just been added to the Future Knowledge Podcast series in a shortened form, so this seems like a good moment to […]

From the #journal Nature, an excerpt from an article with the title “#AI Is Transforming Peer Review — and Many #Scientists Are #Worried”: “Some enthusiasts see the #automation of #peer #review as an #inevitability — but many #researchers, such as [ecologist Timothée] Poisot, as well as #journal #publishers, view it as a #disaster. …” https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-00894-7
