Last I looked the (free) Proton VPN worked only on http traffic in a web browser. It is in effect a proxy.
If you wanted to torrent on a VPN you’d have to pay for the ‘actual vpn’ product. The free version would offer no protection against DMCA reports to your ISP for a torrent.
I’ve literally never heard of an ISP cutting a customer off over torrenting (oR wOrSe). You guys are just making shit up to make yourselves feel better about paying for a service you don’t actually need.
Can you give an example of a ddl. I’ve been using fitgirl repacks with Jdownloader2 and have also been downloading the torrent file itself with utorrent opera browser extension and both times have had the opera vpn turned on and still got emails using both things. Is jdownloader2 not a ddl? I’m sorry if I sound stupid but I genuinely don’t know wtf anyone means when they’re talking about ddls. Like rom paradise? Does that count? Cause I’ve downloaded games from there as well and still got emails in the past so I really don’t know
Real debrid is the best way to torrent
What are you talking about?
They do that specifically because they can and tbh it is not that hard to do.
And society, society calls me gay
I can’t say i recommend them (wish there was more options, like selective download rather than all files) but seedr’s free plan works great for downloading anything less than 5gb, and once you’ve got the torrent files (or folder as zip) downloaded you can delete it from your account and repeat as many times as you need.
Damn, your in America in guessing?
Torrent trackers. I’ve played most games and watched most movies for 20+ years. It adds up.
Well what I meant was going to a site and downloading the game through a GoFile or 1fichier link. No torrents/torrent client involved so I don’t have to worry about my ISP finding out. Much safer this way.
Correct, it’s good as a vpn but p2p is blocked and you get disconnected it it sees you try connecting to peers.
No, you don’t Use good VPN.
Many many years back, I got the ‘threatening DMCA’ letter from Comcast. Three strikes and you’re out - kind of thing. They weren’t wrong, but I’ll freely admit it was for something stupid - like a TV Episode of something off eztv.
I had a mate who ignored his similar letters, continued doing the things and he got cut off.
So - now you’ve heard of it. First hand, as it were. It happens.
Get a load of this guy
You’ve never heard of it, therefore it’s never happened?
It’s an illegal activity, they have the means to identify you, and I’m the crazy one for distancing myself from that… right.
I had my internet shut off 3 times in 2 months due to torrents, so I switched to Direct Download and never had the issue again.
It was Cox internet in the US.
I torrented for well over a decade before that with no vpn and no issue.
No reason for me to make that up.
This was like 1-2 years ago.
So there.
Now you have heard of it and can quit acting like it’s never happened.
I have never and never will pay for a vpn (Tho i use a free vpn extension in my browser to use porn in a right-wing state)
I was just watching mandalorian
