How do you pay the VPS Provider? The Cops can simply go to the VPS Provider and ask what Bank account or paypal is linked to the Account who runs the Server with the IP address they tracked. And what if the VPS Provider is logging your traffic? They can Monitor anything that leaves your VPS (their network) because a VPS is just a Virtual Machine like KVM thats why its called VPS = VIRTUAL Private Server. OPSEC my friend... I think you are safer if you just use Mullvad and pay with XMR and only access the mullvad site from Tor. (I know i am paranoid xD)

Torguard.net
Torguard has port forwarding which is essential if you belong to private trackers. Wireguard connection is very fast and stable. Plenty of 50% off coupons that are easy to find via Google. This summer, they had a 70% off coupon. I opened a ticket and they quickly applied the coupon to my existing account.

I use Nord VPN. Might switch to Proton when my sub is done.
I use Mullvad because I don't need port forwarding. If you are using a VPN specifically for piracy I would use a seedbox, cheap ones aren't that much more expensive.
ITT a ton of people not reading the OP 🤦♂️
OP’s request was needlessly complicated especially once the thread got big.
Is it just me that using a VPN on my android, everything becomes much faster ? Apps load faster, the internet is faster, etc. Is it because it cuts out some s****y connection ?

hide.me for UPnP port forwarding support (TLDR you can have access to more peers)
Mullvad VPN, its pretty good and is a flat fee per month. It works good with Linux Mint.
I don't, I use usenet
