The problem is that even if Midjourney did that, there will be other creators have no such moral or ethical issues with people using their software to make these fake photos without any sort of hidden or obvious data to show that they are fakes. And then there will be the ones which have money from a state behind them, and possibly a very large library of surveillance photos for the AI to learn from.
