I wish USB sticks had read-only mechanical switch.
One possibility: Full size SD cards and microSD to SD adapters have a lock "switch". This is just mechanical, as it was with floppy disks, so it's up to the card reader to detect and prevent writes when set. If you could find a USB SD card reader that detects and properly handles the "switch" you may be able to use it in place of a USB flash drive. -- Scott
