I’m searching for a good, free VPN and my friend told me about this one. I was wondering if the free version would be sufficient enough to hide what I’m downloading or what sites I visit from my ISP? Mostly just out of fear of receiving a DMCA letter or something for downloading games.
Yes. Free servers do not support P2P traffic though.
I’m assuming you’re looking for a VPN to torrent and port forward illegal videogames. Free version can allow you to torrent to an extent but not port forward, and no promises it’ll run smoothly. You can buy a basic plan that does have the ability even though that’s not what you wanted to hear.
And no, there is no free VPN for torrenting and port forwarding unlimited. Otherwise everyone would be on it.
If you’re doing illegal stuff (which I don’t recommend doing, but it’s your life) your ISP may limit your bandwidth or give you a notice to stop for torrenting or violating DMCA if severe enough just for the sheer fact it takes a long and sturdy connection. The odds of this are medium low though.
I’m not torrenting, but I use emulators, including a Switch emulator. And I have some sites I use to download the games so that was my main concern.
I don’t torrent, but I download games for emulators. So I wanted to just hide what sites I was visiting to download those games.
You can hide what websites your visiting and downloads with a free protonVPN, but your ISP will see how much data is being transferred. Just don’t go downloading 8 GB every other hour and you should be fine.
That’s fine. As long as what the data is is hidden, then I feel covered. Thanks for the clarification.
