Hey guess what
PLOS One fucked up ANOTHER paper I'm an author on, in exactly the same way they did with the last one
They didn't send proofs before publication, and now they have to issue a correction
This time I'm middle author, and sending the paper to PLOS One wasn't my decision in the first place
Anyway, it continues to be amateur hour at PLOS One and I can't recommend against publishing your work there strongly enough
