Medium is a platform where blog-format articles can reach a serious audience — which means an article containing false information, reputation-damaging claims, or a copyright violation about your brand can spread quickly.
Article-level reporting process
- Tap the three-dot menu below the relevant article
- Select "Report this story" and specify the violation type (copyright, reputation damage, misleading information)
- Medium has a separate DMCA notification form for copyright violations; you can apply with evidence of your work
Reporting the author's account
If the same author repeatedly commits violations, an account-level complaint can also be filed with Medium; this process is usually longer and depends on the platform's editorial review.
To continuously track content published about your brand, Achernar's Scanning / Monitoring service scans a broad area, including news sites and blogs, 24/7.
