Major Media Features
We get harmful articles and posts taken down from Medium.com.
We handle:
Medium accepts reports in the product, through a web form and by email, and judges them against the Medium Rules. We match your content to the right rule and file with documentation reviewers can act on.
What we remove
01
We build the case for false and damaging articles, matching each claim to the Medium rule it breaks and preparing the legal route against the author where needed.
02
Copied or republished work is removed through the DMCA process, which Medium recognizes.
03
Articles that publish sensitive personal data are reported under Medium’s privacy and harassment rules, with the evidence that shows the harm.
04
Accounts using your name, photo or brand to publish content are reported as impersonation and escalated with proof of identity.
05
We also remove articles from Google results, so removed or reported content stops appearing when people search your name.
Where we deliver
How it works
We review the article, the author and where it ranks, then identify which Medium Rules it breaks and the strongest route.
We capture the content, document false statements with proof, and gather ownership or identity records for copyright and impersonation cases.
We submit through the right Medium channel, matched to the specific rule, and escalate when responses are missing or generic.
We track the outcome and stay on the case, then work to remove the article from search so it stays gone.
This is a methodical process, not mass reporting.
We build the case the platform acts on.
What you get:
Because platforms are protected for user posts, we go through the policy route and, where needed, a legal order against the author. We also push removed content out of search to lock in the result.
Typical scenarios
01
An anonymous Medium.com article accuses a business owner of fraud and ranks on page one.
→ We assess the claims, document what is false, file policy-based reports and prepare the legal route against the author.
Our goal: Article removed under the applicable rule or legal order
02
A writer finds a full copy of their article posted on Medium.com under another name.
→ We gather proof of ownership, prepare a DMCA notice and follow up on every copy.
Our goal: Copies taken down through the copyright process
03
A harmful Medium.com article keeps appearing for a company’s name.
→ We pursue removal first, then Google de-indexing and stronger results above it.
Our goal: Article removed and cleared from search results
Pay-for-results guarantee
You pay only when we get the content removed. No upfront fees, and the terms are confirmed in writing before we start.
FAQ
Yes, where the article breaks a Medium rule or the law. That includes copyright infringement, privacy violations, harassment, impersonation and content a court has found unlawful. We assess it free and pick the strongest route.
Medium accepts reports through in-product flagging, a web form on its report page and an email address for its trust and safety team. We choose the channel and the rule category that fit your case, and attach evidence the reviewer can act on.
Because platforms are protected for what their users publish under Section 230, we go through the policy route and, where needed, a legal order against the author. We also coordinate with defamation counsel when identifying an anonymous author makes sense.
We follow up and escalate with stronger documentation and a better-matched policy ground, rather than resending the same report. We stay on the case until it is resolved.
Yes. If someone republished work you own without permission, a properly prepared DMCA notice is the route Medium recognizes, and we prepare it with the required details and proof of ownership.
Yes, we also work to remove the article from search. Where a legal or policy basis exists, we pursue Google removal or court-order de-indexing, and we build stronger results so the page stays out of view.
Avoid these mistakes and your report is far stronger: reporting without citing the rule the article breaks, sending identical follow-ups instead of adding new evidence, replying publicly to the author, and skipping documentation. Save URLs, screenshots and proof of what is false before you report.
Our fee is tied to results: no removal, no fee. Every decision is the platform’s or the court’s, so we assess your case first and confirm the strongest route and the terms in writing before we start.
