As some have stated depends on treat model. I personally use Mullvad for both pirating and accesing restricted sites in my country and evading shity laws. 5€ 5 devices with no bottleneck it's pretty good. Sometime I use tor when I try to reach a site that the WiFi provider has blocked
The problem with Mullvad is that there is not port forwarding for seeding stuff
There's no problem with seeding. There's actually more uploaded than downloaded
not working quite that well on my end. no matter how popular torrent, mine won't seed at all. and i can't download some rare ones where there's like less than 50 seeds.
What OS are you using? App? If you're using qbittorent make sure you have selected tun in advanced -> network interface
My bad
