That's not the way permissions work so you are making some
mistake or misunderstanding the results.

When you COPY a file, you create a new file (the copy) and
the permissions (not rights) are derived (inherited) from the
parent directory in which the new file is created. That's just
the way it works.

When you MOVE a file (and it's only really a move if it's the
same VOLUME, otherwise it is a Copy then a Delete of the
original) it retains the original file permissions because it STILL
IS the original file.
