I didn’t get it at first but following a link led me to “According to its commitment to open research information, it has decided to discontinue its subscription to the Web of Science publication database and Clarivate bibliometric tools in 2024. By resolutely abandoning the use of proprietary bibliometric products, it is opening the way for open, free and participative tools.”
It’s not the only way, e.g. “Sorbonne University has decided to unsubscribe from the Web of Science, to refocus its attention on free, open and participative infrastructures like OpenAlex” from https://www.sorbonne-universite.fr/en/news/sorbonne-university-decides-withdraw-times-higher-education-world-university-rankings

That’s good news!
