Assuming they are not lying about their internal policies (nobody disputed that at the moment), it’s already not allowed and this was writer fuck-up. Benj Edwards “Senior AI Reporter”, co-author of that article took the blame for it.

The article was also removed after 1 hour and 42 minutes on a Friday. That’s faster than most other publications able to include update note in my experience (when they bother in the first place).

Apart from punishing this writer for breaking the internal policy I’m not sure what else they can do here to satisfy your concerns.
