REF: protecting Internet data

[Doug Bancks <dbancks@FAIRMONT.K12.MN.US>]

Greetings,
I have had a student ask how it is that some images on the Internet cannot
be copied. He is building his own web page and is learning about html but
says being able to protect images from being copied is something he has not
discovered. Can anyone offer an explanation of how it works? Is this a
function of programing or of hardware? Thanks for your help folks.
