I’ve been looking through the threads here, and it looks like as of June 2024, there was still no way to block people from certain countries who are coming onto our websites and copying artwork, designs, and product photos without them still being counted as visitors which destroys conversion rates. Has there been a resolution since June 2024?
Topic summary
Main issue: Seeking a way to block visitors from specific countries to prevent copying of artwork/designs and to avoid these visits being counted, which harms conversion rates (percentage of visitors who convert to customers).
Status/update: As of June 2024, no confirmed built-in solution is noted. No new definitive resolution is provided in the replies.
Suggestions offered:
- Explore third-party “country blocker” apps in the app store.
- Consider client-side measures (e.g., disable right‑click/copy via code snippets).
Considerations/limits:
- Client-side copy prevention is easily bypassed and may not stop determined actors.
- It’s unclear whether suggested apps exclude blocked traffic from analytics/metrics.
Outcome: No confirmed fix or platform-level change reported. Action items are to test “country blocker” apps and implement basic copy deterrents. Discussion remains open/unresolved.
You should check out the app store and search “country blocker”. I think you’ll find some valuable information.
Also, search Google for code snippets that prevent right-click and copy functions.
