You're right—thanks for pointing that out.

Because of their shady tactics, I had naturally assumed that Axel Springer must be involved, but in fact, Springer Verlag was founded by Julius Springer, who apparently has nothing to do with Axel Springer.

Edit: I'm removing the part about Springer Verlag from my comment so that other people don't get confused.
