No. Flattening PDFs means to "burn in" comments and the contents of form fields 
from editable to page content.

The only way to "protect" contents from editing are the password settings. 
There are free tools to set them, but AFAIK no open source tools except maybe 
libraries.
There’s also pdfcrack to find out passwords.

Not at all.
