The problem isn't access to hosting - that's ubiquitous - it's visibility. Most people aren't going to see the point of setting up a website that no one will probably ever visit, and that will probably never even show up in search engines.

This is why all the advertisement funded services are doing so well, and I think this kind of thing is a good way to match it. Once people get used it, they might even demand special features, only that they in practice pay for it as a package that also contains an internet connection, rather than paying for it specifically.
