If it would be as easy as you assume, I could agree. But this random sample of 5 pics wouldnīt improve anything. It would only work if the infringing site starts with stolen content. How long do you think they will do so if itīs easy to put on a members area with legit cheap content and change content afterwards?

So if you really want a decided improvement and want the processor to be responsible for, there is no way to stick to 5 random documents during the activation process. You are forced to have a look at every provided content, even if it is uploaded after activating the processing.

You canīt expect it for free. And in the second place controlling documents and deciding wether they are legit or not would meet legal problems. Maybe not during the signup process, but while processing for the prospect infringer. And as I said above, controlling 5 random documents before activating the account wouldnīt change anything.
