most of the job will be technical support and finding the right server providers. marketing will be the limiting factor.
it's pretty quiet legally, usually it doesn't go further than DMCA cease & desists, but you need to mind countries and what logs each requires you to store.
see packetimpact.net maybe i can help you

How does this work in practice though? I had a DigitalOcean droplet setup with OpenVPN and they contacted me pretty quickly (within a week) with a bunch of DMCA notices (due to torrenting). I can imagine that this would be quite a frequent occurrence as a VPN operator and not necessarily something I would like to be dealing with.
