Is there a way (hardware/software wise) to lock down files from being copied off?

So... you are able to copy files on to a certain form of media to share, but make it read-only in the sense that the files can not be copied off of that form of media??

Any thoughts? Thanks!!!!

Anything that can be read to share/use can be copied.

NTFS permissions should fix this, but I don't recommend NTFS on Flash Drives. I agree; Google does no harm.
