 * Hi [@raggi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/raggi/) thanks for reporting 
   this.
 * Latest plugin version 1.8.0 enabled the “nocookie” option in the Plyr player.
   This changes the YouTube domain of the player that is loaded to one that does
   not include cookies, for GDPR compliance.
 * However, as you’ve noticed, it looks like the YouTube player loaded from the “
   nocookie” domain is actually a bit different from the standard player, in that
   instead of “share” icons in the top right of the player, there is a “copy link”
   icon.
 * Regardless of whether there is a “share” icon or a “copy link” icon, they are
   still unclickable as is the purpose of this plugin. As [mentioned in the FAQ](https://wordpress.org/plugins/protected-video/#can%20the%20youtube%20watermark%2Fcontrols%20be%20hidden%3F),
   there is no control over these internal elements of the YouTube player, and they
   cannot be switched off.
 * One thing I could do is make the “nocookie” option configurable within the plugin.
   That would allow you to still load the previous style of player which has a “
   share” icon instead.

 * I will consider making the “nocookie” option configurable in order to control
   this. Since no reply, resolving topic.

 * This topic is in English, please continue in that language for the benefit of
   all reading.
 * As I said, the “copy link” button as part of the player, and cannot be disabled.
