Abstract
Time is running out for academic institutions to escape the cycle of economic exploitation represented by for-profit academic publishers. Over the last decades, we witnessed a steep increase in the number of publications, while the number of scientific publishers plummeted drastically as well. This oligopolization is harmful to science in many ways. We discuss the main issues associated with a potential reversal of this process to give back control of science publication to the producers of science. By embracing innovative technological solutions, we can work towards a more inclusive and sustainable publishing model that better serves the needs of researchers and institutions worldwide.
