In order for the browser to display a page, the browser needs to see the
source (of course). If the browser can see it, so can the user.
Perhaps, if a *browser vendor* wanted to implement it, there could be a
meta tag like <META NAME=HideSource CONTENT=yes>. Upon finding such, a
browser might disable its ViewSource and SaveAsHTML functions while that
page is frontmost. But this is only an idea, and you can't expect all
users to switch to a browser which implemented it. In fact, it might be
a reason that users would *not* want to switch, 'cuz they want to peek!

o/` view source sees the source, of course, of course
and no one can hide viewing source, of course
that is, of course, unless the source
has been hidden A to Zed
