This does not seem to work for Mcgraw Hill books, I modified it for anybody struggling with copy pasting from there. Here's a modified version.
javascript:(function(){
allowCopyAndPaste = (e) => {
e.stopImmediatePropagation();
return true;
};
document.addEventListener('copy', allowCopyAndPaste, true);
document.addEventListener('paste', allowCopyAndPaste, true);
document.addEventListener('onpaste', allowCopyAndPaste, true);
document.addEventListener('mousedown', allowCopyAndPaste, true);
document.addEventListener('mouseup', allowCopyAndPaste, true);
document.addEventListener('selectstart', allowCopyAndPaste, true);
document.addEventListener('selectionchange', allowCopyAndPaste, true);
})();
You probably will have to refresh your page after copying as this can potentially break certain buttons and links.
I finally got a chance to test this with one of the W.W. Norton books, it doesn't seem to work.n When you highlight something it has a popup dialog that tries to hijack your clipboard.
Does not work in some bank websites
Thanks.

Thanks, any chance you can fix the thing that breaks reader mode with the W. W. Norton books too?
