it's a hard problem, "proof of retrievability" types of protocols have only recently been implemented in filecoin for example (siacoin uses a similar protocol but relies on some trust assumptions iirc).
you might be interested in this attempt to build the same with bitcoin: https://github.com/cgilliard/bips/blob/storage/bip-XXXX.mediawiki

Do you need that proof though? Worst case you lose 1sat and you temporarily blacklist that peer

depends on implementation details and use-case but either way if 1 sat is all that's on the line, maybe not!
