If anything, I might just make a service with an unassuming name that polls the registry key periodically to see if it's been flipped, and if it has then notify IT staff, who would then commandeer the computer, flash drive, and event logs(showing the registry key was changed by that user), and then refer them and the logs to management.

The real solution is to modify user rights, and possibly remove flash drive capabilities and use network shares instead when data needs to be copied to machines.
