They say they don’t log the link between your IP and the sites you visit. They say they just use your IP to assign to your the Cloudflare IP.
Speed?
I can max out my ISP speed, which is pretty decent. (With the free version, no need to pay for WARP+)
Free, decently fast, decent privacy policy. IMO good enough for the average pirate who doesn’t want to pay.
Thoughts?

Edit: WARP is https://1.1.1.1/, a free VPN. I wanted to mention this because it’s often said that you need a paid VPN for torrenting in some countries like the US or Germany
Setting 1.1.1.1 as the DNS server on a router will simply use the Cloudflare DNS server instead of your ISP DNS server. It improves speed and makes it harder to the ISP to track your activity, or block sites for you. But still they still see to which IP addreses you are connecting to. And anybody with your IP can see what files you are torrenting (this can be checked at https://iknowwhatyoudownload.com/)
WARP will route all your traffic through the Cloudflare servers (like any other VPN). So your IP is hidden from the public when torrenting, and from the sites you visit. And your ISP doesn’t know what sites you are visiting
I just checked the page for my own ip, my past seedbox IP and my current seedbox IP
My current (dynamic) ISP IP: No downloads. Makes sense, as I do not have torrenting.
My historic seedbox IP: No downloads. Strange but the website claims it tracks the DHT protocol and I am pretty sure I rarely used DHT for my torrents back then
My current seedbox IP: Multiple downloads from today about me supposedly downloading XXX stuff amd various kinds of games and movies.
The site doesn’t know all shit or at least not maps it to the correct IP. I am not interested in torrenting porn anyway and if, I would probably not download it from DHT and more likely be around private trackers
I don’t torrent games ever. The only pieces of software I did are photoshop and illustrator and switch games.
Is my seedbox hacked? Not impossible. I found an open seedbox FTP connection on shodan and have the power to connect to the FTP share. Is kind of interesting to see what others download.
Your seedbox probably shares the same IP address with other people. So those xxx downloads are from them.
the DHT is just a decentralised torrent index that lists all torrents in public trackers, plus the ones seeded by people with DHT enabled in their client, iirc
You are incorrect. If you pay for a seedbox, it is almost guaranteed to be a shared box. Unless your seedbox costs you over $100/mo, you don’t have exclusive control over it or the IP it uses.
Private trackers know how seedbox companies operate, therefore don’t really give a shit that you’re sharing an IP to seed.

I believe (my) seedbox IP is unique. Else private trackers would certainly throw a fit because of shared accounts due to IPs.
I will ask my hoster. Seems interesting.

Yeah nvmd. I asked my hoster today.
It’s shared.
