Oh wow. Elsevier alone has much more grip on global academia than any one company should have (what the article didn't mention, they also own Overleaf, so they have access to a non-negligible fraction of all STEM research before it is available to anyone but the authors). But I didn't know that it is part of an even larger conglomerate l (LexisNexis alone would make for a formidable Elsevier competitor).
