Such a service already exists, it's called Hola[¹]. The problem is that the owners of machines serving as exit nodes are exposing themselves to liability that a regular VPN or VPS service would probably be protected against, and often without even realizing it.

Hola doesn't route users through other users, it uses proxy servers. Users are turned into exit nodes for Luminati.io customers (servers/bots) only.


Ha ha. Why to avoid Hola ;)
