If I read it right, he wants the site to be open, with all his own customers and prospective customers getting access to everything, but doesn't want to do his competitors' work for them. Make them do their own homework. So having closed off areas wouldn't work - his own prospective customers wouldn't see what he needs them to see.
I think he just wants to make it difficult for a few well-defined people to see what they're up to and pinch all their ideas. Lots of luck though, I can't see how that's possible.
