---- SEO friendly ways to prevent plagiarism?

Ive seen a few websites get more savvy about this lately. They place a small one pixel image in their content so that the user does not see it, but when automatic scrapers grab it and it is pulled to the scraper content page, the full size is displayed, often saying things like

"This is stolen content, get the real story at ____"

You can also disable certain elements in the right click which prevent the low end scraper from copying and pasting content. Some might see this as a handicap since often other quality websites will copy a sentence or two when writing about you, but all in all if often prevents the lazy scammers from copying the data as well since they would then have to view source and try and navigation in there and copy the content.
