Did Ghislaine Maxwell’s Dad Really Invent Paywalls?

Wild claim alert: People online are saying Ghislaine Maxwell’s dad, Robert Maxwell, is the reason we have to pay to read scientific research. The truth? He didn’t invent paywalls, but he did turn scientific publishing into a big-money business after WWII. Before him, research wasn’t exactly free, but he definitely helped lock in the pay-to-read model we’re stuck with today. The open access movement is trying to change that, but it’s complicated! #Relationships #FactCheck #GhislaineMaxwell
