By default, when your TiddlyWiki document is posted on-line anyone can read 
it, and they can edit it, and download it (with any changes they've made), 
but they can't *save* it on-line unless you've installed specific scripts 
on the server or are using hosting such as GitHub Pages... and even then, 
they'd need your ID and Password / OAuth / AccessToken, which is only 
stored in *your* browser (using Local Storage), which permits *you* to save 
changes online without re-entering your ID and PW, but won't let anyone 
else save online.

For example, "Inside TiddlyWiki" (http://TiddlyTools.com/InsideTW/) can be 
viewed by anyone, but only I can change the online version.

Note: Inside TiddlyWiki also has a custom-built "locked/unlock" toggle 
that, by default, hides the admin/editing functions to give a simplified 
"read-only" experience; however, even when "unlocked", visitors cannot 
*save* back to the online copy.
