If you do have to use it, it is worth noting that since the plugin is GPL, you can legally just edit out the footer as long as you make it clear in the source code that you did that. Not an ideal solution even then, but it's something. Glad you liked the post!

I had a client asking me about this back in June and I wasn't sure if a plugin existed for it yet. Footer credit aside (don't even get me started on those...especially ones that aren't credits but insert paid text links for the plugin author!!), I pointed out that she could easily copyright her work without preventing legitimate uses of the right-click. Besides, she was worried about scraper sites, which use the feed rather than copy and paste anyway. I'll keep the plugin in mind for determined clients, but I think I'll point them to this article first. Interesting.

However, I don't think that's a plugin per say, most likely just a JavaScript trick. Which seems a bit silly because you can actually use the same trick to simply block selection if you wanted.Strange, but interesting. That once again seems defeatist to legitimate users though.

It doesn't stop a Ctrl+A move but does frustrate a little.
