How can I protect from hotlinking of Images and Files?

Hi folks, 
I was wondering if anyone has toyed with protecting content used in Marketo from hotlinking from another source? Ideally, if someone opens a PDF I'm storing in Marketo I'd like to redirect them to the Landing Page if they got the URL for my PDF from somewhere/someone else.

Seems like something that would be accomplished by using a "Htaccess" file, but does Marketo support these?

I don't think this is possible within Marketo right now. You could do it with the right server-side settings if you hosted the files yourself. Also, it might be a good idea to file.

In order to use a .htaccess file you would need access to the directories where your files are stored, at the server level.  Which, at least to my knowledge, Marketo does not allow.

This feature would be great.
It's a real problem when you use Marketo for content delivery and then an article hotlinks to the content.
