    When i embed an unlisted Youtube on a WordPress post or page, users can right click on the video and see those “copy video url”, “copy video embed code” etc options. Is there a way we can disable those so nobody can copy it and embed elsewhere? Thank you.

    Sorry but no, that’s part of the youtube player and there isn’t anything you can do to modify it.

    In general it’s not possible to prevent this as the Web itself is fundamentally a distribution platform. It sends copies of your text, images and videos to people’s machines when they visit your website.
