@springernature.com a bit hilarious how a critical paper on pppr in one of your journals cites a non-existing paper in one of your other journals. It's not the only fake citation either. AI slop by the EiC of that journal.

Having a "conversation" on LinkedIn with someone who, after three responses, still doesn't know the difference between "Dutch" and "Danish", or The Netherlands, Germany, and Denmark. Sigh. No prize for guessing where they're from.
