How do I disable cut and paste on my posts ?

I would like to disable cut and paste from my posts by the public. I have customization, with CSS, is this something I can do through that tool ? If yes, please help me. Thank you so much.

There isn’t really a way to disable cut/paste anywhere on the internet. It’s just not one of those things that can easily be stopped.
Is there a particular problem that you are having that you are hoping to solve via trying to disable cut/paste?

Thank you very much for the reply.
I am trying to not allow people to repost my free newsletter that takes about 6 hrs to do as their own.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks again. -

Thank you so much, yes.
Some of the song lyrics site will not allow cut or copy and paste. I was hoping I can do the same. -
I think your best bet might be to look into making your newsletter a pdf newsletter that can be downloaded or perhaps setting up a calendar type system so that people can’t just swipe the whole thing at once.
Sadly, there really isn’t a good way to stop people from swiping text on the internet. Even what the lyrics sites do can easily be avoided if someone wants to. I know it is frustrating to have somebody swipe something that you worked so hard on producing, but there really isn’t a solution that won’t seriously limit the ability of your audience to see your work.
Does that make sense?

Thank you so much for helping, I am going to explore the calendar idea, maybe that would discourage these people.
Best,

Happy to help.
Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you. Otherwise, thanks for using WordPress.
