How to hide source from anons?

In a custom namespace we save data that contains email addresses. These addresses shouldn't be accessible by anons.

With helpf of the lockdown extension I said that anons can't edit this namespace. However they still can view the source and thus see the email address.

Is there any way to disable "view source" for anons?

The only thing I found was Extension:ProtectSource but it's still in beta...

Is it enough to remove the links from the UI? You could use the answer hereI.

I do have a way to hide the source, but it is a custom extension that I've been meaning to improve and release.

Thanks for your reply, Mark.

Removing the links from the UI is not enough.

When do you think your extension will be released?
