Wouldn't synthid type watermarking fall under GDPR. Personally identifiable information attached by third party to content in the expectation that it would be published and trackable?
GDPR have lots of board exemption.When some processing is required by eu or eu member state law, that processing doesn't need explicit consent.One could also argue the watermark tracks the generated content, not the person
That’s not how it works. If it can uniquely identify the user it’s personal information as per GDPR. And therefore illegal in this implementation.
