<div>
<div>Dear Helen,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Not only I but <span style="font-weight: bold;">all</span> of my colleagues have been inundated with this inane notification. It was a total waste of time to be informed of something that will be happening in the future. Please let me explain my objections
and those of many of my colleagues.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are currently in an era where knowledge production is increasingly commodified, primarily for the benefit of corporations such as yours. Individual researchers have very little monetary reward for our intellectual work, as has been well documented.
We do reviews for free (I wish I could say it was on my university’s time, but the reality is otherwise) and we spend weeks if not longer writing papers that are also not compensated.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It makes no sense to track reviewers and many of us are objecting to the increasing ‘audit’ culture in academic knowledge production, where practically every effort we make is quantified and monitored.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I disagree that the email suggests journals are ‘encouraging’ reviewers to use ORDiD. The email clearly states that it will be required. And T&F journal editors don’t seem to have had any say. According to Carol Taylor, editor of Gender and Education:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;">"As Editors we had very little input into this process, and it was very much a corporate level decision that Taylor & Francis journals are going to be using ORCID. I personally don't have a problem with it and can
even see some advantages but I can also see that it further extends the panoptic gaze of neoliberal power over researchers' psyche. I'm sorry to hear you won't be reviewing for us any longer. We value all the work that you've done for us as a reviewer over
the years. If at any point you want to reconsider, we'd love to have you back with us."</div>
<div style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"><br>
</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I hope you will take this feedback and other comments you’ve received and moderate your policy. Otherwise your journals may be likely to suffer an even more severe shortage of reviewers.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All the best,</div>
<div>
<div><br>
