Medium.com has the same business model as Elsevier

Medium.com is a wretched company. Of all companies, they decided to replicate Elsevier's business model - take quality content from content producers at no cost, slap the Medium name on it, and put it behind a paywall.

No thanks. Don't think I will. Guess I don't need to read that article as badly as I thought I did.

People, stop giving your content away to companies that will immediately put it behind their paywall! What's wrong with you? Don't you care about your readers?
