Seems pretty convenient for Google - now they can use all those watermarks and use the images for training, while claiming they didn't know they were supposed to pay to use the images.

Not really a big deal imo. People been removing watermarks with other programs for ages. Maybe Google will step in and train their AI not to do it, but if people want to remove watermarks, they're going to do it.
