Cute. Potentially useful. It would, of course, be a disaster for you if its use took off and you ended up handling a lot of illegal material, or even if it were enough of a success that you used a lot of bandwidth.
The oneshotness of it does mitigate that a bit. If someone wants to share material with N people they have to upload it N times, which rate-limits (ab)use.
