Often websites modify your pfp too, like changing the image format or quality.
Yes but I think most of them use absolutely the same transformation so the resulting image is the same. I really can be wrong though.
Nah they don't. I uploaded the exact same pic to a bunch of different work profiles (slack, google, microsoft). I inspected them out of curiosity and they were all different sizes and resolutions.

You should still worry about it for manual association. I rarely use them outside work.
