It is a wake up call to PhDs: if your PhD is not in an area that has direct societal/ industrial impact then you won't get a job! It is as simple as that. So, be careful what subject you choose and if the place/ lab has good networks with industries. Be smart and agile!

True. But you have to also act on what you want. Just doing the routine that has not worked before with the hopes of "it might work someday" is just hoping for the best. And hope is not a good strategy. Be intentional and act on it!

Does anyone really care what happens to the Early Career Researchers who have already published in these journals? Everyone are busy at their own game: PI's don't really care, journals want money, regulators want to regulate. Researchers with no jobs are the ones to suffer.
