How to secure torrenting? VPN?

I use wireguard VPN, setup my own VPN server. On my home server, I deployed wireguard and qBittorrent clinets on Docker swarm. Recently I have created a blog post on how-to guide. You might interested…

I have been using this for a month. If you use this approch for any other VPN clinets

same… download to seedbox the rclone to home server…

What seedbox service you use?

THIS. Usenet/Newsgroups FTW. ever since i switched to doing this ive never looked back. Definitely the superior option in my opinion

Don’t give out our secrets!

Been a fan of PIA for over 5 with no complaints.

AirVPN has been great to me. Even though their website is atrocious.

Even though I know that is a typo I will use what you did type to describe what ISP’s do to you if your VPN doesn’t work or what will happen 99% of the time using a free one.

Why barebones? I happen to have free MS Azure from school, will that work?

I’d recommend linking it next time- I am sure the negative karma is due to people not knowing what you were talking about.

They’ll mail you a notice

I use seedboxes.cc

Oh my, what a typo. I fixed it.

Yeah, making sure that your torrent traffic does not leak out of the VPN is just as important as not using a free one. Using free one is bad because they usually will keep logs and will hand them over when the authorities require it and you will get another cease and desist notice.

This is the reason why I also setup pf in the jail to ensure that leakage never happens. Note that many providers usually do provide a kill switch feature, but I prefer to use pf because I trust its reliability more and it’s also provider-agnostic so it will work regardless of which VPN I use.

You don’t need any compute power or memory or storage to run wireguard. A single cpu core and 1gb of ram is enough. All you need is good bandwidth and the server to be located in a good country for downloading.

Oh come on peeps, seriously? I gave the answer and I get down voted…. Lame.

Look into usenet/newsgroups and youll never look back. No need for vpn at that point as long as you use their SSL connection. With what i use i can easily max out my 1gbps download using usenet

Definitely worth looking into. Best part is you dont need a VPN as long as you use an SSL connection (which is typically included these days with most usenet providers. You do need at least one provider and at least one Indexer at minimum)

With this setup i can mostly saturate my 1gbps download when grabbing stuff from usenet.

Hey, in all fairness-

People who don’t know what the trash guides are, could understandably take that comment the wrong way!
