It's not at all surprising to see i2net and Tor growing, and people even putting Gopher servers and proxies back online.

Then again, I'm all about people putting information out there because they have something to share, not because their primary focus is "how can I monetize this?"

I can spend less on a VPS for a month than I can at a morning of Starbucks. I can do a whole lot more (and share a lot more) with the VPS. No expectation of making money from it either.

I miss the days of /~ pages too.
