MODERATORS
I have been using PIA. They changed owners awhile back and there were some concerns about if they would continue to NOT keep logs. They have maintained that standard and I’ve had zero issues torrenting with them.
They sell even an antivirus, I don't think it's trustworthy company. In my personal opinion nowadays antivirus are a scam.
Why do you think antiviruses are a scam?
And because most anti-virus skirts the line between useful software and malware these days
Because most viruses are less annoying than all the pop ups that Norton used to give and also because most viruses are less hoggish about system resources! Also, does anybody remember John Mcafee?
Is it possible to use port forward with gluetun and pia do you know?
If you find the answer please let me know
I used PIA years ago and they supported OpenVPN and Wireguard so you should be able to configure them in gluetun with that, but I've only had one half-assed attempt at trying out containers at this point so take this with a grain of salt.
Ok ill keep that in mind ty. Was going to get free trial, but ill stick to airvpn for now since they are keeping PF it seems
