Basically, sites whose essential purpose is to use disk or bandwidth.

When making a website, you should be thinking about “How can I make an
interesting site for my visitors while minimizing my server storage,
bandwidth, file system, memory, and cpu impact as much as possible?”

The result will be a better experience for your visitors, your web host,
and yourself!

Here are some specific examples of things not allowed:
Copyrighted content to which you do not hold usage or distribution rights.
File upload / sharing / archive / backup / *mirroring* / distribution sites.
A site created primarily to drive traffic to another site.
Making your account resources available (whether for free or pay) to the
general public."

Bold marking are mine.

I was thinking hosting video archive is not something you can do on a 10USD
month shared account, but Dreamhost uses Debian as infrastructure, maybe a
more direct contact with them could negotiate a local deb mirror and|or
video... I would be happy with any, also I tried to contact them for
Debconf funding, but the only answer I got was that my mail was forwarded
to the management, don't really do much follow up, but something can result
from that, :D as I'm also hosting my personal sites on DH.

Could be useful get in contact with http://mirrors.kernel.org/?

Regards.
