It's not different to any other archive in that regard, it will be targeted for takedown. The goal seems to be solely to monetarily incentivise uploads with a one time reward for doing so, which then becomes a free for all accessible paper? That's how I'm reading it.
If it works then cool. I suspect there will be a few absolutely massive uploaders who scrape and upload for the incentive. Whether that means some things appear that weren't already accessible elsewhere I don't know.
