Whether sending to APRS.FI or not is a decision Hessu will need to make. Hessu does accept AIS data so maybe he would accept ADS-B as well.
In the past, people (Pete?) working with APRS-IS has requested no AIS data to be uploaded to the APRS servers. Both AIS and ADS-B has the potential to provide too much data and is likely not welcome.

I think it will probably better to have the oppportunity to transmit only specific traffic based on one tail-number(s) / flight number(s) ?
