I don't see a problem with this. It's for security and anti hack/hacker purposes and reveals no personal information.

Interesting, I guess steganography wasn't suitable for this purpose, since many image hosters autoresize the image and the hidden data would be lost.

But isn't the watermark also degraded and useless in the same case ?
