  I’m looking for options to protect my blog content from unauthorized use/copying. I found information on disabling the right-click function on wordpress.org blogs. Is this option also available for wordpress.com blogs. If so, how is done? I also would appreciate any other suggestions.

  There is no such option for WordPress.com blogs because those things don’t work at all.

  The only effective way to stop your content from being copied is not to publish it. Use a private blog, or don’t put it online at all.

  I know that’s not the answer you want, but it’s the most accurate one you’ll get.
