And with services like Backblaze offering cheap offsite backup, it's a no-brainer.
My home internet connection is 10:1 upload, but that's still 38Mbps up which is more than enough to backup several TB - sure, the initial backup will take a while, but it then keeps up with incremental changes without any issues.

Backblaze pricing is apparently per computer. Are there any licensing or technical issues with routing backups from all our devices through a single computer like my FreeNAS box?

Exactly that. Only 15mbits up here but that’s fine for incremental backup. Recovery story is better which is the often forgotten bit. Downtime during recovery is a proper pain.
