I guess this settles it for me. What VPN should I go for?

Hmm I had my buddy go to this and he claims his download history has things he never downloaded. He doesn’t use a VPN and no one in his house torrents but him. Also he primarily uses a seedbox. Confusing lol.

Oh he uses T-Mobile home internet so prob shares a public IP with more than a usual ISP

I'm in the same boat, I haven't torrented the "traditional" way in YEARS ever since I moved over to the superior Usenet

And yet, I'm seeing a small history list here as of a couple days ago hmmm and I'm on Crapcast so CGNET doesn't apply

Looks like I'll be doing some investigating today :/ maybe it's time I got off my ass and got Suricuta running on pfsense

What did your transition to Usenet look like? I just transferred from torrenting to Soulseek myself but it isn’t cutting it

I transitioned to using it primarily for Sonarr and Radarr for TV and Movies. Its mostly a set and forget it if you choose the right providers and indexers.

I don't sail the Music sea because Spotify has filled all my needs for the price, same for the Gaming sea because of Game Pass.

Software, I usually just look around for freeware/open source alternatives or pay for it if it's of quality and worth the price.
