Physical written-protected disk like SDCard can update the value of "Media Read-Only", may I ask if there is any API could modify this value when recognising a mounting event? I am trying to not allow erasing my USB when it is mounted with read-only permission, thank you.

You can’t modify that value. It’s intended to reflect the state of the media itself.
