Don't do this.

It is a terrible idea.

1. Free services have negative interest in protecting user's privacy, they would mine the shit out of that data.

2. Since you are doing this from a company network and split tunneling is not 100% secure, this means that your company computer will send internal communications through the VPN, where it will be mined the shit out of.

3. Since you are talking about torrenting, even if you are just consuming small ammounts of data, don't be surprised if the VPN provider eill either block you immediately, or hand over suspicious logs to the police/media companies.

4. You claim to have permission to do this, I am pressing X to doubt, if you had proper permission to do this you would not need to use a free VPN, the company would either have the technical and legal infrastructure to deal with this, or they would provide you with a good paid VPN like Mullvad.

5. This sounds extremely sketchy to me, and unless I have a written and signed order to do this in this manner I would refuse to do this work, and even then I would want a written and signed order for the specific time I had to do it.

It's such an unfathomably bad idea to pirate things on company servers

Free VPNs are generally a bad idea. They are frequently malicious, harvesting data or credentials to fund their operation

If you have a rooted phone you can extract Windscribe wireguard config file even on free plan. Data directory.

wd.vp is the wireguard config file.

Don't listen to soy nerds being akshually this is a bad idea. Do what you want.

That said,

Be careful with DHT scrapers though. Those things will find much more illegal stuff than pirated stuff, I'm talking about CSAM, even if you don't download it even having the magnet could be illegal.

You can use cloudflare warp

What about https://protonvpn.com/en/free-vpn/

Do they do shady stuff, too? They say:

"[...] the Proton VPN Free plan has the same level of security as our paid plans, including the same strong VPN protocols and strict no-logs policy."

They don't allow BitTorrent on the free plan... But I don't know how that translates to you using BitMagnet, since you're not downloading the torrents.

Don't use a free one. Use ProtonVPN or Mullvad VPN. In general even for normal browsing. Free VPNs are trash.

VPNGate is free and they do offer OpenVPN config but they do keep logs unfortunately and idk if torrenting is allowed

As much as I believe we should take as much advantage of our employers as they do they're employees. Its important to remember that you'd be handing them a legally sound reason to fire you.

Proton VPN, mullvad VPN while they're not free they're reasonable and your in employment, think of it as an investment as you can have 5 systems on one account (mullvad no sure of proton)

You should never use a Free VPN for torrenting.

Windscribe gives you 10GB in the free tier, for testing purpose, that should be plenty.
