Is it just me, or is this happening to anyone else? Recently, I noticed that a couple of my stories were not behind the paywall. Usually, my stories automatically go there without my having to select the option. The only time I would intentionally not put something behind a paywall is if the publication I’m submitting to doesn’t allow it. (I only submitted to one of those once.)

Is this some stray keystroke I didn’t notice? Are Russian bots attacking my income stream? It can’t be that I’m losing my mind because that went a long time ago. Wait! It just happened again with this piece (this is an edit). WTF? Did my automatic default to metering setting get turned off? If so, how do I fix that?
