I wanted to do some soulseek, but just as I began moving towards that this happened. What VPN should I use for this ? I don't want to use any of those over advertised shady VPNs like nordvpn (who was a spamming machine on my PC back when I used it) or surfshark or others if not necessary...

would NOT recommend protonvpn since it's the same company running protonmail, which has a history of bad security and has given private mails to governments. plus their free plan is pretty bad and doesn't have port forwarding. but it's an unpopular opinion ig.

anyways, i've been using airvpn and it's been fairly good. some other ones include:

  • windscribe
  • torguard
  • cryptostorm

The problem is you say all that then recommend PIA. Another company known for being shady af. Proton ultimately is still under Europol laws but they have an onion site and you can pay in crypto

I'd like to see your sources on that statement.

PIA has literally gone to US federal court at least twice, and prevailed both times proving they had no logs to share with authorities.

PIA has an actual track record of privacy protection success, which is something few other VPN providers have.
