Read is same as Viewer.
Yes with Read permission, user can't see the dataset.

aj1973 You've been very helpful and what you described appears to be working.
However, I have another related question. When I go to remove Read access to a dataset I get this warning first:
It's asking if I also want to remove access to two reports that use that dataset. This is confusing as I would think by the very fact I'm removing access to the underlying dataset that those reports would automatically not be available.
If I do not check those two reports, does the user still the ability to somehow view those reports, even if they don't have Read permission to the underlying dataset any longer?

Yes the user will still see reports but with no data in it coming from that specific dataset.
Remember a report can be developped from a Composite Model, like a combination of 2 datasets in the Azure Analisys Service.

aj1973 Ok, the situation of having more than one dataset in a
reportcomposite model would make sense to ask about removing access to the whole report.Once again, thanks for your help!

Carefull, a Report can not have more than one dataset. The dataset can contain more than one dataset and it is called a composite model.
