It's not FOSS and I don't see a way to review if what they claim is actually true.

It may be a way to just help to diferentiate legitimate human made work vs machine-generated ones, thus helping AI training models.

Can't demostrate that fact neither, because of its license that expressly forbids sofware adaptions to other uses.

The EULA also prohibits using Nightshade "for any commercial purpose", so arguably if you make money from your art—in any way—you're not allowed to use Nightshade to "poison" it.

This is the part most people will ignore but I get that's it's mainly meant for big actors.
