Great video, my question would be , how can you make a USB drive that can not be copied? The reason is I want to load product on one but do not want folks to be able to copy and distribute it. Any answers will be greatly appreciated.

[@TechnicalSpark]

You have to encrypt that USB storage device so that, only those person who knows the password can access data for rest it won't be accessible.
