I see it as no different than mapmakers inventing a nonexistent alley, to check who copies their maps verbatim ("trap street"). Even if this caused, for example, a car crash because of an autonomous driver, the onus I think would be on the one that made the car and used the stolen map for navigation, and not on the one that created the original map.
