Are you suggesting that it's pointless to use a VPN?

Yes, a hosted seedbox paid with crypto and self managed keys is the way to go for torrenting

If you are worried about VPN's, why are you not worried about seedbox providers?

I am not worried about my torrenting traffic. I am worried about installing their software on my machine and giving them wide access including port mirroring.

if you can't connect to a vpn using only open source software, that's a crappy vpn
