'Copy to' in SharePoint Online can you hide Your OneDrive link

Is there a way to prevent users copying SharePoint documents to their OneDrive? I've got a document library, and when I click "Copy to" on the ribbon, the options on the right hand side of my screen is to choose a destination - Current Library, Your OneDrive, and then any other sites.

Without preventing people using their OneDrive, or removing OneDrive completely from the tenant, is there a way to prevent people copying from SharePoint to their OneDrive. 

 

Note:This is a screen shot from a modern library.

  • AFAIK, the only way to prevent this is by disabling the use of the Office Graph...but disabling the use of the Graph will also affect Delve, SharePoint landing page and some other places where the Graph is used

      I don't think the Microsoft graph is the answer. Our tenant has this turned off already. Currently have a change request in the company to get this turned on.

        Well, in that case the answer is that you cannot prevent people copying from SPO to ODFB or viceversa
