All good and well till someone takes a screenshot.
It might be resistant to screenshots - unless I missed it, the article didn't clarify whether the obfuscation process is applied to the image on a per-pixel basis, or within the file format itself...
If it was that easy to bypass it would be a pretty futile mechanism IMO, one would just need to convert the image to strip out the obfuscation 🫠 or just take a screenshot as you said

It's as good as scanning a random marking of a human bone that somehow installs a virus in your pc
