> The specific reason for the retractions was copyright violation, so there was nothing wrong with the actual papers from a scientific standpoint. There is a reason why the German portmanteau word "Zensurheberrecht" ("Zensur": censorship; "Urheberrecht": the related concept to copyright in German law) exists. | |||||||||||||||||
