This article is a first-hand account of the author's work identifying and listing predatory publishers from 2012 to 2017. Predatory publishers use the gold (author pays) open access model and aim to generate as much revenue as possible, often foregoing a proper peer review. The paper details how predatory publishers came to exist and shows how they were largely enabled and condoned by the open-access social movement, the scholarly publishing industry, and academic librarians. The author describes tactics predatory publishers used to attempt to be removed from his lists, details the damage predatory journals cause to science, and comments on the future of scholarly publishing.
本文是作者对2012年至2017年识别和列出掠夺性出版商工作的第一手记录。掠夺性出版商采用金色（作者付费）开放获取模式，旨在尽可能多地创收，常常放弃适当的同行评审。该论文详细阐述了掠夺性出版商是如何产生的，并表明它们在很大程度上得到了开放获取社会运动、学术出版行业和学术图书馆员的支持与纵容。作者描述了掠夺性出版商试图从他的名单中被移除所采用的策略，详述了掠夺性期刊对科学造成的损害，并对学术出版的未来发表了评论。
