If I upload an image on discourse, others can get this image’s link by right-clicking it.  
Then others can use this link in their sites but using our server’s resource.  
For example, they can just add an image like this: \<img src="[https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/6/4/64af524f9f666e206333fce9e162ebdc9d7da671.jpeg](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/6/4/64af524f9f666e206333fce9e162ebdc9d7da671.jpeg)

Can we prevent that?

You can attempt prevent it in NGINX see [https://meta.discourse.org/t/protecting-your-discourse-installation-for-hotlinking/7491](https://meta.discourse.org/t/protecting-your-discourse-installation-for-hotlinking/7491) It is an old thread, but according to @mpalmer in [https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-do-hotlink-protection-in-discourse/92780](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-do-hotlink-protection-in-discourse/92780) it is still relevant
