With a functioning justice system or government or social structure, with blame comes punishment and consequences that deter future behavior. If top researchers refused to publish in or advocate their department pay for closed-access journals, they would die. If the NSF required NSF funding could not be used to generate work that would be published in closed-access journals, they would die. If the justice department broke up these journals for the public good or we simply made it impossible for certain IP regulations to apply to scientific research, they would die. All of these actions require first to acknowledge there is a problem, second to blame corporations running closed-access journals, third to destroy them. You can't skip the second step.
