Agreed. I also would be very wary of any traffic that I don’t know about sourcing from my network. The amount of money spent on lawyers when something malicious comes though this ‘sharing’ , and I’m in the jackpot because it sourced from me, is likely going to be many multiples of whatever dollar amount I make back. And this doesn’t consider any contractual terms on your service that might not allow you to do this in the first place.
Maybe some situations where it makes some sense for somebody, but too much risk for my tastes.
