I always thought Tor hidden services make a great way to host your own cloud. Not only can you host on your own hardware without messing with dns, isp reps, and router settings, but you get privacy features for free.

IMO, I think local hosting is the primary usecase the Tor project should be advertizing.

Hidden services are not a primary concern of the Tor Project, or a primary use of the Tor network. They are a novel way of using a system designed for anonymous and censorship-resistant communications.
