Second #asknostr post today but this one is more important. Need a second opinion on this plan.

I've waited a long time for someone to make a BitTorrent cloud seeding platform with a free tier, but it never happens. The internet itself is too heavily censored so far. A few offer free torrent downloading, but no free seeding that I can find.

There is one that has caught my attention despite charging for seeding, because it allows payment with Bitcoin, doggie coin, and Monero, while recommending Monero for its privacy.

Should I sign up for the paid service on the basis that I will let other content creators piggyback on my account for free? This way I'd basically be adding a limited free seeding tier myself. You just send me any torrent you need an extra seeder for, I check if it's safe for this service to host, and I add it to my account if so.

If they're really glowies trying to hurt the p2p community, they'll shut me down for depriving them of customers by sharing my account. If they're really just trustworthy p2p supporters trying to stay afloat up against the copyright cartel, they'll appreciate how I help their service provide free hosting using my own time and money. I guess I would also accept donations to let it grow beyond what I'm prepared to fund.

Anyone think this is a bad idea or should I go for it?
