gollark: At best, as Wojbie said, you can make it annoying for people, but then one person will do it and share how.
gollark: You just *cannot* give people access to a thing in one way and expect them to not be able to access it in some other way. Basically every DRM scheme - which this really sounds like - has *failed, inevitably*.
gollark: As Grim Reaper said: if there is *any* important data there or something, *people will get it out* eventually.
gollark: Also, some platforms might not like bytecode.
