I have had PIA for years on desktop and mobile with firefox and it’s been fine. Any reason I should consider switching, or is it still generally good for privacy?

I occasionally torrent. But I’d like to browse and post politically sensitive content safely. Here on Lemmy, but also other non federated places.

Thanks

        Basically any cheap VPN is good for torrenting as we don’t need complete anonymity but more of a proxy like connection, to not receive letters from ISPs telling us our use of internet

          Genuinely curious, what makes a VPN not completely anonymous? Are you talking browser cookies and fingerprinting?

            In any case a VPN is not anonymous but more private than without. Only some can be used as real privacy voucher (for example Mullvad, iVPN (and maybe proton…)), other are great for torrenting but in any case for privacy, they are not really transparent upon their security + surely friend with most of the intelligence agencies
