I was thinking of having that exist but lead to a "copyrighted" answer (i.e., if you aren't sure we just assume the worst every time). If we're talking a software-level implementation, though, a abortive upload should be logged: "User:Whatever attempted to upload a file named XXX.jpg, but stopped after 4 steps. [some brief gibberish here to allow those in the know to see what he answered to the questions]". If the user initially gets to a "copyrighted" result and then backtracks and claims he took it, you'll know something's up.
I don't like it. It reeks of spying, and it's not the sort of thing we would be proud of telling everyone about.
