I can explain this, when you take a photo your camera will add EXIF information to the photo, describing the size/resolution, sometimes the camera's brand, maybe a geolocation, and a lower resolution thumbnail. As long as that EXIF thumbnail isn't replaced or removed the original image will stay on the thumbnail.

In this case, the original thumbnail wasn't replaced so it doesn't have the lettering.

Most image uploading sites will remove this EXIF information, but about a decade ago I found photobucket didn't remove it (they probably do now), so I'd find "censored" pictures where someone would take a naked photo but they'd photoshop over the nudity, but the thumbnail wouldn't be censored
