you just had me check if my article was plagiarized and I just found it on a site! Thank you šŸ˜‚šŸ˜­ @ben I think you should check if they don't pump all the articles from dev.to here.

If you CTRL+F and search for "ethical hacker" you'll find my article.

You can also find it here.

That's not a big deal but if it's redundant it would be problematic, if think.

Sorry to hear that šŸ˜®! Some websites use web scrapers to scrape articles from other platforms so it can get out of hand to keep up with who's plagiarized your content.

That's what I was thinking, that's why I mentioned @ben so he could check if there are other people in my case.
