Because 1) I paid for it, and denying it to me is as stealing an unused item from my house and 2) laypeople DO use scientific papers. I read the paper about 40Hz light being applied to mice with Alzheimer’s and used it to built a light-flickering headset to try on my mother. Open access is just basic morals for taxpayer funded research.
- gowld 9y agoYou paid for the F-35 too. Do you deserve a ride in one? Are you concerned that your unsupervised human trials might harm your mother? Your anecdote makes a point in favor of restricting access.
