No.

All watermarks are cures that are worse than the diseases they are trying to prevent (and never achieved to even cure anything).

Watermark is a blatant violation of legitimate privacy expectations, while not preventing anything because they can be easily removed.

So all the honest usages are punished, while illegitimate ones are not caught.

A water mark that identifies you personally is a different prospect than one that merely identifies the image as AI generated.

I am with you on opposing a watermark that identifies a person.

I am not with you in saying all watermarks are a violation of privacy or that they result in punishment of honest use. I don’t see how those follow.
