Would you move to usenet to no longer use torrents?
What about Mullvad?
Can you explain a bit more, if you don't mind? From what I've read not being able to port forward can decrease the number of connections you can make while torrenting (i.e. slower down-/upload), but I don't see why this would cause IP leaks assuming your torrent client is configured to only use VPN connections. I've never used it personally. Not trying to be obtuse or anything, I'm just a bit confused and very sceptical in terms of alternatives because I'm not very serious in terms of torrenting and would be hesitant to change my trust.
Awesome, thanks for clarifying. The more good info out there, the better o7
Windscribe is also based in Canada - I don't trust them for many reasons. AzireVPN seems good too albeit a bit expensive.
Personally I'm getting AirVPN once my Surfshark subscription ends (I know, it's awful, but I already payed for it 🙄)
