Frankly, when I see this sort of behavior, I
see the "C" to stand for "Clueless" rather than "Copyright".

I would suggest that people who do this do not truly understand the
concept of copyright. Only the smallest and most unobtrusive copyright
mark is needed to fulfill the legal obligation of notification/claim
as seen on the work itself.

That only applies to some of them. For the others, it's an attempt to fight the viewer/copier/thief who has Clueless for /their/ "C". Theoretically, people that wouldn't abuse the copyright would try to see past the obtrusive notice, while the thieves will move on to someone else's photo with less/no notice.
