Jeff - thank you for sharing this and bringing this to our attention. I had no idea. I should start searching to see if any of my articles are plagiarized, essentially stolen. I taught college writing for many, many years and plagiarism has always been a problem. I suspect writers plagiarizing and stealing on Medium are recent college grads who got away with in college and are practicing dishonesty in the real world while masquerading as unprofessional writers and misrepresenting themselves. I've always wondered what the average age of Medium writers is. I'll start googling sentences in my articles. Articles using my sentences will pop up. This is I how I caught students' plagiarized papers.I can't believe I need to be doing this. Please keep us posted. The fact that Medium is reactive and not proactive says a lot and it's not good for their integrity and the integrity of real and authentic writers.
