Doesn't the "host" app that is displaying the PDF have to "obey" these
settings? What I mean is that if it is still unencrypted text, couldn't
it easily be extracted? These security settings seem like ways to keep
the "regular" people from getting at the data, but it seems like it
wouldn't take too much work to get at it.
So if you take this document and print it to PDF, will the new PDF obey
these settings? If not, then you just quickly converted it into an
unsecured PDF.. perhaps I'm missing something.

With the full version of Acrobat you can set the security settings to
allow or prevent certain things like copy/paste, exporting, printing,
opening etc. It's under Document Settings->Security.
