That might work. I found some documentation on an API for CloudFront web
distributions:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/APIReference/Actions_Dist.html
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/APIReference/PutConfig.html

It looks like you can PUT an <enabled>true</enabled>.

It would be nice if this were a separate process apart from meek-server
that counts requests and bytes and keeps track of estimated costs. It
should be able to send a message to another process somewhere that
controls the AWS API keys.
