Unfortunately, Mr.Camper those "good old days" are long gone.
Back in those times, hitch hiking was a convenient and for the most part, safe mode of transportation. However, today society as a whole is in a downward spiral. :(
Reality is it's no more dangerous today. 40yrs ago, you wouldn't hear about an incident 100miles away. Now you hear about every incident 2000miles away.
This is basically the same as uber or airbnb. Very good chance it's illegal and not insured. As a camper, your risk is probably fairly low. If an issue comes up, you will be asked to move along. As an owner, someone trips and falls, expect your insurance company to laugh when they find out you are operating a business.
Unless it is an ideal location with something special, not sure why you would bother. We've used airbnb where a nearby hotel runs $150-250 and we are getting a place for $30-75. Campsites typically run $15-40. There just isn't that much to save.
