I want to take them at their word...but it&#x27;s more up to Google, isn&#x27;t it? And doesn&#x27;t Google still rely (in part) on the canonical meta tag to resolve duplicates? Currently, the posted Medium post has this:<p><pre><code>      &lt;link rel=&quot;canonical&quot; href=&quot;https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;engineering-at-ifttt&#x2F;data-infrastructure-at-ifttt-35414841f9b5&quot;&gt;
</code></pre>
It would be relatively easy for Medium to appropriately set that tag -- I mean, if &quot;original URL&quot; is captured somewhere in the API, or in the Medium post-create-admin interface (I don&#x27;t know, I haven&#x27;t logged into my own Medium for awhile)...that would explicitly resolve the ambiguity, though at an obvious cost to their own SEO.
