Claude Watermark FAQ: Answering 659 Comments

My first Claude watermark video passed 28,000 views and 659 comments. This follow-up answers the biggest questions: ownership, copy/paste, Notepad, OCR, retyping, rewriting with another AI, editing your own writing, code quality, and why the EU rule has global reach.

Anthropic still has not released the detector or full technical documentation, so I separate what is confirmed from what remains unknown—and look at the comments that found real weaknesses in the plan.
