gee, if a person gets that many warnings, and doesn't respond, and keeps up the bad behavior, then an indef ban is certainly justified.
The problem is that normaly they do a load of uploads then go away so there is little point in blocking them.
If we're getting a string of these hit and upload burst people, some checkusering *may* be in order (I don't *know*, but it might be) to see if they're repeat offenders. Remembering that the recentchanges table only goes back a limited time (one to four weeks on dev whim and system resources). So if you have a string of recent hit-and-run anon uploaders, please leave a list of usernames on WP:RFCU with a note that I suggested checking for persistent offenders might be in order - insisting on dropping us in the copyright poo is not nice or suitable behaviour.
