If you want to prevent anyone from restoring write permissions on the
file and then modifying it, you have to change the owner of the file
and then give only read permission to other users. As far as I know,
this owner change can only be done by the super user/system
administrator. It is how all the system files are protected against
modification by regular users. If you also want to prevent deletion of
the file, its containing directory must also be owned by a different user.
