Ha! I'm trying to remain neutral, so no guessing either way from me.
However, if someone smarter than I has any statistics to share in the
recent weeks, I would be very interested to see if there is any
measurable impact.

Google has removed an easily accessible button that would take you

this may have, if any, on the discovery and use of images hosted on
Wikimedia projects (most notably Commons) that appear in these Google
search results.
Are you guessing positive because people will have to access the actual
pages and will be more aware of licensing and context, or negative because
it could reduce the visibility/reusage? Or not guessing at all :-)
