I understood the question to be what you should do for worry free 
hosting on your home PC (linux). If their EUA does not allow hosting, 
but at first they are not blocking your host, it is reasonable that at 
some point they notice your traffic  or decide to enforce their EUA thus 
causing you pain after you thought you had it all set up.
