Actual link (full text article available for free)-- https://www.nature.com/articles/s41366-022-01211-2 .

oa.mg appears to be some sort of search aggregator that wants you to buy the article for $17 even though it's open access (freely available).

Yeah, unfortunately.

Repackaging and selling free stuff is a business model that is hundreds of years old.

Occasionally, it's worth it, as the repackaging may come with some help understanding the material, or help in organizing it.

Well, water is free, and yet it's sold in bottles.

And I can sell you any GPL program I got for free, if you're willing to buy it...
