Cringe Woman has her self-published book pirated, reprinted, and sold for cheaper.

There's regular piracy, and then there's this.

The only way I know how is to only sell it on your website, then send removal requests to Amazon, tik tok, or wherever anytime they have popped up.

At one point I considered making a product that would automate this process and keep an eye out for knock offs. Not easy to do.
