Nah. Most people might use VPNs to hide their IPs, but most people are not using torrents also. There's honestly little need to hide an IP just for torrenting anyway, at least in the US, Canada and most western countries. You just get a letter from the ISP you can ignore.
If you use torrents a lot, you use a seedbox, not a vpn.
- dawnerd 3y agoI think you’re in a different bubble. If no one used vpn for torrents why is one of the top docker images for transmission one to support vpns? No ones spending money on a seed box that’s just casually torrenting. https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn
- PrimeMcFly 3y agoI'm not saying no one uses VPN for torrents, just that it is not a main use case. People casually torrenting are not worried about hiding their IP. Also, not sure that is a top docker image but either way plenty of people with the skill to use docker are probably running their own vpn for their home network. I don't think it means much.
