> in many cases we need to transmit information and also take steps to ensure that the recipient does not forward that data anywhere else without our permission This is pretty much impossible. It's DRM. It's a pain in the ass for everyone while still not preventing the thing that it is supposed to. The analog hole (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_hole https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_hole) is always there if nothing else. Please don't encourage the use of broken software that is fundamentally flawed. I'm not unsympathetic to the goal of controlling the spread of certain information, but when the product plain doesn't work (preventing selecting the message text isn't stopping a cell phone pic for example) and it gets in the way of regular rule-following folks who have to take their time to get around it that's not helping anyone. It's just a total waste of time/money for all involved.
