      It’s can be much higher.

      • Psychiatry - Of these 92 individuals, 55 (60%) received payments from industry. Collectively, these panel members received a total of $14.2m (£11.2m; €13m). One third (33.3%) of the task force members had payments reported in Open Payments.
      • Frackademia - Thanks to fossil fuel industry sponsorship, we know all about the benefits of natural gas – but we don’t have the data on its risks
      • Carnism - Of 44 studies of meat and cardiovascular risks, 66% had links to the meat industry. All independently funded studies reported unfavorable (73.3%) or neutral (26.7%) results. All studies with funding ties to the meat industry reported favorable (20.7%) or neutral (79.3 %) results. Studies with conflicts of interest were nearly 4 times more likely to report favorable/neutral outcomes.
      • ETC

      Under capitalism science and technology are developed for the benefit and violent enforcement of capitalism.

        lol. So an article made to look like social media research is compromised is in effect saying it’s more ethical than regular research.
