Behavior
The component is automatically attached to an avatar if "Protect Avatar" is checked in the Avatar Creator when creating it.
When attached anywhere on an avatar, the SimpleAvatarProtection component prevents all users, other than the single user listed on the component, from equipping the avatar, saving or exporting it, or grabbing materials off of it with the Material Tool. It does not guarantee meshes, textures, etc. can't be grabbed through other methods, such as using an inspector; if someone does so against your wishes, leave the session (or switch to a different avatar) and alert the moderation team.
SimpleAvatarProtection has the most effect when attached to the same slot as the assets you wish to protect for example, adding one to the same slot as your mesh and another on the same slot as your texture(If they are different) will have a better protection effect than a single on your avatar root.
All instances of SimpleAvatarProtection on an avatar can be removed by its owner by clicking the "Remove All Instances" button. No other user can remove the component. If you wish to remove protection but cannot remember where the component was; you can simply add another instance and remove them all at once.
