Recently mullvad stopped the port forwarding, are there some other trustworthy VPN to do Torrenting out there or others solutions to do torrenting with Mullvad?

I have been using PIA. They changed owners awhile back and there were some concerns about if they would continue to NOT keep logs. They have maintained that standard and I’ve had zero issues torrenting with them.

They sell even an antivirus, I don’t think it’s trustworthy company. In my personal opinion nowadays antivirus are a scam.

Why do you think antiviruses are a scam?

Because windows defender and your own digital hygene is enough

And because most anti-virus skirts the line between useful software and malware these days

Because most viruses are less annoying than all the pop ups that Norton used to give and also because most viruses are less hoggish about system resources! Also, does anybody remember John Mcafee?

I used PIA years ago and they supported OpenVPN and Wireguard so you should be able to configure them in gluetun with that, but I’ve only had one half-assed attempt at trying out containers at this point so take this with a grain of salt.
