The topic of predatory publishing is broad and contains many facets.
Rossana Morriello, Ph.D., discusses it, in great depth, in the book published by Ledizioni, available as a free PDF on Zenodo.
In the book, she says that ethics and research integrity violations existed even before the birth of digital.
The publish-or-perish culture only increases this phenomenon.
The line between predatory and non-predatory is fragile, and it is not always easy to distinguish a predatory journal, even for experts.
