That is terrifying! So someone could access illegal content through my home internet connection (while I have a VPN running)?

Yep!

"Exit node" users and VPN customers don't need to be in the same set, though: It's entirely possible that the VPN operator buys residential IP forwarding volume and includes access to it as part of their product offering.

That doesn't make things much better for unwitting users sharing their internet connectivity with insufficient or no education, though...
