In a way this does make me slightpy concerned about Lemmy servers, Reddit has a team of lawyers and tonnes of funds behind it to fight pointless demands like these
A lot of server owners won't and will be much easier to coax into giving up information about it's users
Both IVPN and Mullvad have just removed port forwarding. I hear the options now are proton (which I hear may not have port forwarding on linux yet, but say they will) and AirVPN.
Alternatively, run TOR and a VPN while downloading. The speed will suck, but you should be way harder to track
While it can be abused, it can also not be abused, surprisingly enough. I don't want a secondary cheap vpn for DOWNLOADING, I happen to SEED, you leech, and also use slsk which means I now can't connect to anyone who also can't forward their ports because they also use one of your cheap VPNs with no port forwarding for DOWNLOADING.
You are condescending, have added no new info, and you're clearly just a leech, I'm pretty done with this conversation, sorry "pal."
Wah wah wah, I called some guy out for being a leech and he is now mad at me, whatever will I do?!
Go "danger" your own colon, I'm done talking to you.
