Alan Levine comments on what appears to have been the recent sale of Lumen Learning's OER content to Course Hero, which promptly enclosed it and used it as an advertising vehicle to sell additional paid resources. "So yeah, out with the Rights to R*5 and we start now with the Right to Profit from OER content. It's just P's all the way down," writes Levine. "If anything is a call to detach from profit oriented platforms and reclaim the web for your own, well this call has been screaming for a long time."
