Does this watermark still work if someone screenshots an image?
2 comments

Yes. The data is embedded in the pixels of the image, and it's embedded in a way that survives recompression of the image and some editing.
Does it still work when I take a photo of the screen with a camera?
Maybe. It depends how strong the watermark was, and how good the photo was at reproducing the image.
please tell us if it worked!
try running the code to find out
