Would you consider not reviewing for Elsevier anymore, given their practices?

Yeah, while it's easy to criticise, based on Elsevier's reputation, reviewing for them strikes me as somewhat unethical by most standards.

EDIT: by most standards that at least don't involve some situation of comfort. If you're comfortable in academia, you're probably enabling some unethical shit, is what I've come to believe. It's up to you to decide if you can live with the degree of it.
