Kripanov Anticopia
Kripanov Anticopia protects your WordPress content against content theft and web scraping. When activated, it disables keyboard shortcuts, right-click, copy and paste, text selection, image dragging, mobile long-press and browser inspection tools on your website.
In addition to the common copy methods, the anti-copy protection also blocks inspection tools (DevTools), poisons the clipboard on blocked copy attempts, and lets you exclude specific roles or URLs.

Compatibility
Compatible with WordPress 7.0 and PHP 7.4 or greater. Uses the defer loading strategy of wp_enqueue_script (available since WP 6.3) to avoid blocking page rendering. Frontend-only: does not load scripts in wp-admin or the block editor, so it is unaffected by the iframed editor changes in WordPress 7.0.
