I know free vpns usually are not good, but right now I am not in a position to pay for a vpn. I found Privado VPN and it doesn’t keep logs and is based in Switzerland. It has a data limit for free users, but do you think its safe for torrenting?

    But no p2p on free. Honestly, OP, for this one you may just have to drop some cash on a reputable VPN

            If you want just the vpn without any of the very common discounts its 5€ for 2 years plan

            Its the cheapest good torrenting option with good bandwidth and great privacy.

            Definitely 100 times cheaper than torrenting without vpn and getting caught.

              Just get mullvad then. It’s 5€, every month, no special offers, just 5 bucks. Also it’s one of the best if not the best vpn provider you can get.

                They don’t have port forwarding wich is a problem for torrenting.

                Proton is one of the best, Mullvad is behind only because of the port forwarding. But both are above everything else.

                    And yeah its a bummer, before that I’ve given Mullvad and proton as great options, but currently i can only advertise for Proton in good faith. Its a little more expensive (unless you have a business plan regardless…) but its great for everything else.
