Feature Request: View-Only Mode
Description
I would like to request a feature for a "view-only mode" in the timvisee/send project. This mode would allow users to share files in such a way that the recipient can only view the document without the ability to download it. This feature would be particularly useful for scenarios where sensitive information needs to be shared securely without the risk of unauthorized downloads.
Use Case
As a property inventory clerk, I often need to verify tenant IDs. Currently, I receive photocopies of ID documents, which I then need to verify. A view-only mode would allow me to securely share these documents with the necessary parties without the risk of them being downloaded and misused.
Benefits
- Enhanced security for sensitive documents
- Compliance with data protection regulations
- Increased user trust in the file-sharing process
Implementation Suggestions
- Add an option to set files as "view-only" when uploading.
- Implement a secure viewer that prevents downloading, copying, or printing of the document.
- Ensure that the view-only mode is compatible with all supported file types.
Thank you for considering this feature request. I believe it would greatly enhance the functionality and security of the timvisee/send project.
