Flagged. The title on HN has been specifically changed from that on the original article "Publisher Threatens to Sue Blogger for $1-Billion" to make it seem like it's about open access when it's actually about vanity publishing.
That's exactly the kind of change the "no editorializing in titles" rule is meant to cover.
- dangrossman 13y agoScholarly Open Access is the name of the blog. Scholarly Open Access Blogger is the person being sued.
- ig1 13y agoThat doesn't change the fact that it's misleading and not the original blog title. HN Policy is to keep original title unless there's a strong reason to change it.
