Was this through APC / or US waiver (Gold/hybrid);  or self-archiving Green?

Absolutely - and I support you 110% and I know that author compliance is
awful and I know you (and I) are angry about this and that we need measures

non-compliance because without drastic action (which you and I support) it
will continue.
