I personally wouldn't take the chance. Mullvad is €5 a month, and is worth it to me. My ISP completely shut off my service before ever giving me a notification. I had to completely restart service after going full Karen and blaming it on "my kids." I would do a few searches and find posts or info relevant to your area or ISP.
Mullvad stopped providing port forwards, so they're not ideal for torrenting anymore. They were great before.
Interesting. The lack of logs is still desirable, but I'll look into that further. Thanks!
