Another idea is to require publication of the detaila of drug studies,
the information that drug companies like to keep secret.
Another idea is to forbid drug companies to have any control over the
publication over any research results of research that they fund.
I wish I could think of a way to prevent them from punishing
researchers who publish negative results by not funding them any more,
but the only way I can see is for the government to tax these
companies and fund the research directly. That doesn't really fit
the rubric of "access to knowledge".
