This is very meta... essentially someone who is in the business of writing fake papers has written a fake paper criticizing Pubpeer and post publication peer review as being vulnerable to “misuse” and “hyper-skepticism.

@nicolaromano it is really quite amazing to get a paper like this with 8 co-authors from 12 institutions. Are they all "in" or have they not read and verified the paper they have co-signed ?

@olibrendel Good question, I'm not sure, but several (all?) I've been involved in retracted papers so they might have a grudge...
