MDPI getting hammered again, this time for suspicious phrases in peer review, by an author (Oviedo-García) that seems to specialize in focusing on MDPI.
What we forget is that this was detected because MDPI openly publish a significant proportion of their peer review reports.
The same thing is going on at Elsevier, Wiley, Springer Nature and Taylor & Francis journals.
a) they don't tend to publish their peer review reports
b) they don't seem to have specialist scrutineers like Oviedo-García
