Please do not host a website on a home server. Let alone a piracy oriented one.
Unless you have strong knowledge of cybersecurity best practices AND keep up to date AND still use some form of CDN to mitigate DDOS attacks, you are begging for your home network to be compromised and/or to be DDOS';d to oblivion (and most ISPs will be fairly cross at that point). Also, if you DO have said knowledge then you have even more reasons to never do this
I also question the wisdom of making a portfolio of all the questionably legal shit you have done since a lot of the things that make Brazil "safe" for these kinds of activity (low purchasing power and nobody gives a fuck) also makes it easy to be made an example of with no repercussions. But... you do you.
