There is no technical way to stop the copying of content full stop....the
only solutions for better protection are only going to come from the
inworld community. With any caching system thats implemented you can
guarantee that a week later there will be hundreds of  web pages out there
how to circumvent it. The trick is to just make it hard enough so little
johnny cant find the pictures to look at on his hard drive but  if hes a bit
more determined hes going to just google for a solution anyway..



Personally the only solution to reducing IP theft would be to educate the
population about the pitfalls of having your inv wiped and to not allow
accounts without "payment on file" or a RL verified account  to create any
objects with transfer permissions as I don't think a lot of the thieves want
LL to have there RL details so it will act as a deterrent. I'm sure that its
hard to implement but its not imposable and It wont stop all the thieving
and the community will have to verify all their builder alts but it would be
a start..
