What are good mullvadvpn alternatives with port forwarding - eviltoast

Finding that torrent sometimes don’t download at all despite seeders being present, so having to look around.

I had seen ivpn recommended before, but they don’t allow port forwarding anymore.

    You might want to add the proper context that the servers were siezed by authorities (so not stolen) and they were very transparent about the fact that it was a legacy system. They also followed with a plan to rectify, including third part audits. Every organization makes mistakes, it’s how they respond that matters.

    If you’re looking for a VPN provider that hasn’t had issues ever in their history, good luck. You’ll just end up with the ones who lie and cover up incidents.

      Did you read their comment?

      ’ they had one of their servers seized and private keys stolen in 2021 ’ they never said servers were stolen

      “If you’re looking for a VPN provider that hasn’t had issues ever in their history, good luck. You’ll just end up with the ones who lie and cover up incidents.”

      This is the type of ignorant statement makes it hard to take you seriously. First of all its not true, and if you really believed it, why waste time stanning for Windscribe? What’s your pitch? “They all suck so go with this one”

      Sure, trustworthy VPNs are few and far between but they do exist. On the no port-forwarding side you have Mullvad, and IVPN and other newer ones that seem promising for now. On the port-forwarding side you have Proton and AirVPN with other newer ones that have some promise.

      Even OVPN, who now has dubious ownership, has a far better track-record then Windscribe.
