Blog posts and articles are protected by the DMCA in the United States. If anyone feels inclined to exercise their copyright in this situation, here are some relevant links:

Why and how to file a DMCA takedown notice

Who.is registrar info for FreeCodeCamp

NameCheap's DMCA form - scroll to the bottom, choose "Abuse Reports", then "Copyright / DMCA".

Make sure to include all the necessary information in your request (Sara Hawkins provides a template in the first link above).

I know there are differing opinions on the DMCA and I usually wouldn't bring it up, but I have yet to see any indication that FreeCodeCamp has noticed or cares about this massive copyright infringement and this may be the last recourse for some people.
