    If something like this is added to Stable Diffusion for instance, the OpenSource community will quickly create forks and tools to remove it.

    Also seems likely that the Stable Diffusion crowd will create tools to ADD this watermark to images that are otherwise real... thus calling the authenticity of any image into question.
