I have a folder with multiple files in a Google drive. I want to share the folder with a person in :View only mode" where he cannot copy or download the files (while he is using the firefox browser). How can I do that ?

Thank you !

I'm not sure what you mean with sharing because as long as someone can display the content of a file in a tab by opening a link, then it is possible to copy/save this content. Even if you would only share a screenshot and not the actual file data then there is OCR or you can type the content from the image.
