DRM & Copy Protection for Web Pages
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) develops standards and guidelines to help everyone build a web based on the principles of accessibility, internationalization, privacy and security.
However WC3 is about standards for accessibility - standards that enable web browsers to easily access, copy and unfortunately, exploit web content, leaving it vulnerable to plagiarism and content theft.
Original works and concepts take time to develop. Some cost a small fortune and can be the result of months, even years, of research and development before evolving into something tangible. To recoup the costs of creation, which can include salaries and many other business costs, control is required to prevent unauthorized redistribution. Without distribution control one can never be assured of ever retrieving the investment. Not only can one lose revenue, but one can also lose credibility and reputation.
