If you are a pirate VPN is an essential tool. I am trying to ascertain the popularity of various VPNs in piracy community. In this excerise, I will list several Popular VPNs in the comment if you use one of them just upvote that comment and reply the reason. If you don't find your VPN listed add a comment with just their name. Reply the reason to it. This make it easier to understand the real life user cases.

P.S: I am only looking for paid VPNs please don't mention "free vpn".

The link above explains it better than I can, but without port forwarding it'll still work, but it works better with an open port.

Yeah but the reason to do it is stated as:

If you are OK with your downloads failing in 10% of cases then continue as usual.

Unless I'm missing something, there's no point in me pursuing it as I don't have the problem described, because my Torrents aren't failing.
