I don't understand what you are asking. You don't need a VPN since you lube in a third world country that does not care and piracy.
Then torrent movies without a VPN.
OP wants privacy from the swarm.
vpns just change who can look over your traffic. it basically takes the place of the isp as your endpoint. So its about what the vpn promises like not logging or not persistantly logging or not persistantly anything.
Only reason for vpn is to avoid nasty letters from isp.
Of that doesn't happen on your country, ignore the need for vpn while torrenting.
If I don't use a VPN, is it a good idea to seed? I feel bad if I just get it and don't seed lol.
I didn't know there was a difference in seeding vs leeching with regards to using a vpn. My logic would be, if you can leech, you can also seed. But I'm no expert so, take it with a grain of salt
Oh yes I know that, what I meant is Its already risky leeching but if I also keep seeding- my IP will be visible to the swarm longer.
You can usually uncheck one .txt file from the content so it doesn't download and the torrent will stay at 99%.
That doesn’t prevent your client from uploading, your client seeds while it is downloading. It will still complete and do the same thing anyway, every client I know of will show as completed when all the requested content is downloaded.
I would think it only says complete on your client-side because not everyone should know everything you are requesting at once. It will still be seeding obviously but it's just a low effort way in case the people looking for a list of seeders use low effort too.
Bind your qbittorrent to cloudflare warp. https://one.one.one.one/
You sure you wanna use that for piracy?
I once remember trying it and it was slow when I tried it.
I don't think you need to hide your IP address, but if you really want to I guess you could try I2P.
protonVPN has a free tier
it doesn't have p2p and its slow.
vpns are always slow: 4,6 vs 420 Mb/s right now. If the free tier is even slower, then it is a real punishment
The built in Firefox VPN? Can you use that system wide though or just the browser?
Does VPN protect my whole device?
No. The built-in VPN only hides your IP address and location while browsing in Firefox. It does not protect traffic from other apps on your device. For full-device protection, we offer Mozilla VPN.
Since you said you don't need it for torrents, I thought this would suffice. But I realize now you still want to hide your IP while torrenting.
ye.
There's a pretty good chance that there isn't an enforcement method in your country. It's not worth it for companies to enforce copyright in countries where nobody has any money.
Yea, they only take actions towards the people who hosts piracy websites mostly.
DuckierVPN is free
What's the catch? Does it support P2P?
I don't know about p2p. I think the catch is that they will add premium features when they have a plenty of users.
I don't know, I can't trust a random "free unlimited VPN" with my internet traffic, as well as the text in their website feels vague, and clanker generated mostly.
Any random Free Unlimited VPN with high speed is most probably a scam, who is crazy enough to throw money into a hole for no particular reason.
OP, you seem to have a lot of requirements for someone who isn’t willing to spend any money on a VPN. You either trust the VPN provider or you don’t. If you aren’t paying for it, assume your traffic is being monitored and monetized somehow.
You asked about VPNs, people gave you options, and it looks like you’ve turned down every one of them. A free unlimited VPN with no strings attached that allows torrenting at high speeds does not exist. You may as well be searching for a unicorn.
I know I am looking for a unicorn lol, I was not really looking for a VPN anyway I know it simply doesn't exist, I turned down most of them because I did try them all, I came to the realization to not gaf and torrent without a VPN.
You seem to have a lot of requirements. Beggars can't be choosers
I know what you mean.
There's also https://github.com/Naunter/BT_BlockLists
Which has a bit of controversy... Some people say it works other say it's useless. I use this filter over a year now and didn't get any dmca from my ISP. (I don't download any recent media though)
Keep in mind, this could/will potentially block healthy peers in the swarm ^^ it's not a full bulletproof solution...
It does work in qbittorrent you just need to change the extension to .p2p I think?
Windscribe has a free tier and you can sign up for unlimited data at a single VPN server for only $1 per month.
I have tried it but a singular movie I download is probably around 10-20 gb and Windscribe just gives you 10gb/mon
Download smaller movies then. There are trackers that specialize in highly compressed low quality encodes. You will have to make sacrifices somewhere if you don’t want to spend any money on a VPN.
Ohh yea I guess so, I am spoiled with good quality movies -Whenever I see YTS I run the other way, If I had to download smaller movies I don't even have to use a VPN as mentioned in the post I can use TorBox or Seedr., They already might have movies cached too.
Too broke for expensive subscriptions? Also too broke for a cheap lifetime VPN? Like 30 moneyz?
not broke - I don't earn.
Proton VPN is free to use. It has limited options but should be enough for torrenting movies.
the free tier on proton blocks torrent traffic FYI (for me anyway last I tried)
yes it does and its slow too.
