      The alternative is pirating (which I’m all for), which also should be done through a vpn anyway.

        You’d need to find somewhere that doesn’t depend on ratios. Not many VPN providers support seeding ports these days

        Many (most? It’s just north America I guess) countries don’t give a shit about piracy and would never allow an ISP to give out ips and personal information to companies so they could sue. So, depending where you live, no VPN needed.

          It’s not just America, but all the anglosphere and the entire EU, too.
