Rural Australia here. 40gb satellite limit each month, uploads are counted. Everything we do has to be decided to be "worth it" when you have ~1Gb/day. No YouTube (no video in general unless really needed), no big images. Data is precious and expensive here.
I really doubt these guys are doing any effort in working with my tiny rural ISP. Nor would my or any satellite ISP ignore uploads because some US startup asked them to (they won't even unmeter any content for us like bigger ISPs do).
Something like this would destroy my quota, and I'd treat it as hostile like malware running background torrents or background software updates that don't prompt you (PS4 used my entire quota in one day once, while it was turned off.. that's how I learnt about PS4 standby mode updates! We had no net for nearly a month after that).
