Torrenting with PIA

Anonymous Mon 26 Oct 2015 00:03:43 No.51014497 View Reply Report Delete

Recently got an account with PIA, just to hide my general traffic from my ISP. Wondering about using them for torrenting though. Has anyone here? What did you download? How long ago? Has anyone here actually gotten a notice from them? What did it entail?

There should be no issues unless they compel your records from PIA or if PIA is a honeypot. I don't know enough about them to judge the latter.

I've used pia pretty exclusively in conjunction with tor and been to some pretty nasty onion sites so don't worry op

I haven't been arrested yet and I started years ago

They shouldn't... But you shuld make sure you do preventive stuff like block your torrent client with Windows firewall.

Your fine for torrenting. I wouldn't use them if you were doing something majorly illegal as they're likely compromised by the three letter agencies

PIA is good. It is fast and good to torrent with. It will mask your traffic. However it is so slow at night time it is almost unusable, even for browsing. Maybe it's be worth trying an alternative.

Depends on the server.

Try servers in other cities.

I have tried 7, and in different Countries. No joy.

Maybe they have a really shitty DNS or something.
