This isn't how IPFS works FWIW. Your upstream connection is only needed to feed the small number of fetches that aren't cached somewhere else in the network. Much the same as a traditional CDN in that respect.

Ah okay. Thank you for the clarification.

It sounds similar to Freenet then, with perhaps less of a stress on anonymity.
