Pay $40 a year for a vpn. Use a docker container that has iptables set up to only use the vpn and put a torrent client. $40 a year and nobody will bother you. The person that a vpn provider will expose to lose their company base will be a terrorist not a torrentor
- sergiotapia 4y agoI have fiber so a VPN just nukes my download speeds enough that I hated using it for torrenting. Is this normal in your experience? I am/was a VPN noob.
- unknownaccount 4y agoGet your own VPS and install OpenVPN server on it. Much faster than shared VPNs. I get gig speed on a $12/year VPS.
- mr_woozy 4y agoI thought Wireguard was the new, preferred, simpler way of running a VPN nowadays. Supposed to be lighter protocol and less complicated to set up wrong than OpenVPN.
- ews 4y agothat sounds sweet. do you mind telling us which VPS are you using?
- UncleEntity 4y agoI on and off use mikrovps as they advertise they don’t care about dmca complaints. Looks like the first time I signed up was in 2018 and never heard a peep from them. Usually I get the cheapest plan and run a torrent client on it then use scp from there. I almost got wireguard working once but had to get them to add a kernel module through a support ticket then reinstalled and didn’t feel like bugging them again. Just a happy customer.
- dotnet00 4y agoDoesn't that defeat the point? Most VPS providers will quickly ban you upon receiving copyright notices.
- oefrha 4y agoDo not route everything through the VPN then, only bind your BitTorrent client to the VPN’s network interface. Also has the advantage that if the VPN connection accidentally drops, your BT client doesn’t start transmitting on your residential and expose your IP.
