  If you didn’t give them the right to offer the book for download, then you can file a DMCA on them. Instructions should be in the Support documents.

  Sorry @RC – forgot to copy that link – since the copy slime is on WordPress.COM can’t do – but good for others

  Thanks for keeping things honest
