I just found out that my leading blog post, the one that inspired my entire learn AWS course has been moved off of Medium is now on a new site: freecodecamp.org/news/how-to-host-....

Yet, I never gave permission to move this content off of Medium where I own the content. This is incredibly shady and definitely violates my rights as an author on Medium. I do not have the canonical url problem like others. But this is definitely an author attribution problem that must be resolved @ossia .

Hi @kylegalbraith , freeCodeCamp also moved my owned content off of Medium. Were you able to take successful steps to protect what is yours?
