Should content be protected?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

Is it worth it to protect the content, for example, in such a way to program: when someone copies the text of the site and pastes it somewhere, a link to the source is copied along with the text with the inscription - the source or continuation is here. So did Ria.ru and other news sources

Answer 1

Who needs to copy and delete the unnecessary link, if the copy-paste is attentive.
My answer is no.

Answer 2

Previously, I typed Lorem ipsum in the search and immediately got to Lebedev's website. When I copied the text of the fish from there, a link was added. As a result, I added a link to another site with fish at work and at home. Well, as they say - should Lebedev do this?
In addition, as they write above - how long to remove such a link, and you will definitely not be remembered with a good word. Another thing is if you do this for convenience. But judging by the formulation of the question - you are trying to protect the content. My answer is the same - no, it's not worth it.

Answer 3

Yes, but it's not real.
As they say, if someone needs it, then little will stop them.
But you have an option not for technical protection, but for legal protection .. it will be more effective.

Answer 4

Spend more time writing interesting content than defending it. PS everyone knows anyway.
