The evidence

What the reporting establishes

What happened

Meta’s Muse Image combines generation and editing with Content Seal, an invisible watermark and a preview detection tool.

Pressure point

Meta says the signal survives common transformations. Its real value depends on independent durability testing, detector access, and adoption beyond Meta’s own products.

What to watch

False positives, deliberate removal attacks, third-party detector support, and whether provenance survives cross-platform reposting.
