I’ve told potential employers that I’m happy to share anything in public domain but much in the same way I wouldn’t break confidentiality for them, I can’t break it for current or former employers.
Most people understand.
The understanding has not been my experience.
Can you create blinded versions and use a passcode so what you are sharing isn’t publicly visible?

There are some aspects of this work that can’t be put into a portfolio, and most people who understand what you do would get that . You can always offer to complete writing tests, share sanitized work product, and back up your assertions with recommendations from former colleagues and clients. Even sharing articles and clips can sometimes be tricky, given that a lot of this work is sometimes keeping things OUT of the media, and it’s hard to prove a negative.
