To me, this is a major ethical issue. If any actual humans submitted this “paper”, they should be severely disciplined by their ethics board.

But the publisher who published it should be liable too. Wtf is their job then? Parasiting off of public funded research?

Bitfucker knew that was rhetorical.

I can't tell if this question is rhetorical.

Research journals are often rated for the quality of the content they publish. My guess is that this "journal" is just shit. If you're a student or researcher, you will come across shit like this and you should be smart enough to tell when something is poor quality.
