I simply already dislike it because this means when creating a website you can't even rely anymore on the browser showing the image you as website designer intended.

What if I'm deliberately showing a comparison of compression artifacts, or a screenshot of bad vs good game textures, or comparing photos of different cameras? Now the browser will alter the intended good vs bad quality comparison.

I've played around with having images being intentionally low-res or full of artifacts, for artistic reasons. This is a bit like "hey Vincent, your paintings are really low-res, let me make them more realistic for you like Rembrandt did!"

The feature as such seems okay, and I can even see myself using this on occasion. But it really should be a button in the image or something, for usability and privacy concerns.
