I used to get extremely upset, but your stuff is going to get reposted all the time. If anything, I just ask for credit and leave it be, but now I'm starting to completely let it go. It does bother me when someone recolours my art or pretend they did it, but my art has become known enough that people do recognize it. Now, it would be a huge issue if they were pretending to be me or taking commissions and not delivering. Although I haven't personally taken the course of watermarking yet.
I don't mean to say you shouldn't fight to get it removed. I completely get why you would and I used to do so, it's your right. Just saying that I personally have given up at this point.
