Security theater plugin. Doesn’t do what it claims.

  • This plugin is a sham that only stops people from helping out since it makes that harder.
    I’ve just been to a website that has been translating a Chinese novel that is ‘protected’ by this plugin.
    I’m the first person in a year to offer corrections. Why? Since it takes one extra step instead of doing a mouse select and then copy/paste into a comment. And most people don’t care enough to put in the bit of extra effort.

    In the time I’ve spent reading that website and copy/pasting parts that I think needed corrections I could have copied all the text on the entire site if I so wanted.
    So yeah fake copy protection indeed since this plugin does not stop me (or any one else) from copying what it is supposed to protect.
    If a website owner wants a better alternative to this sham plugin just make an image of the text you want to protect. That will give people trying to copy/paste it more trouble (seeing that if they want the text they have to OCR it first and then scan that for conversion mistakes) then it costs to bypass this useless plugin.

    Thank you @sneezyoftie for your detailed review

    I think you write this review based on your experience with our merchant website

    Who told you that our merchant website is protected by our plugin? we need to leave it without content protection simply because we are free to do this!

    We built a testing website https://www.wccp-pro.com/ as a demo to allow our customers to check the plugin functionality before taking their decision

    Yes, you may able to bypass some of our plugin functions, but a lot of thieves will leave your website when they face any level of protection

    That’s our idea

    Thank you
