If you want a privacy focused VPN then Mullvad is great. If you want one for torrents then it’s no good.

Why’s that? I used it for torrents a few weeks ago and at least speeds were fine. Definitely slower but not terrible. Does it leak data or something?

They don’t offer port forwarding. Due to the way torrents work, at least one person (either seed or peer) needs to have port forwarding enabled for the connection to be stable. So if you don’t have port forwarding, you’ll only be able to connect to people who have forwarded theirs. So even if a seed pool shows a lot of available seeds, you may only be able to connect to a few of them. It also means your torrents will take ages to seed, which can be important for private trackers where you need to maintain a certain ratio or you’ll get banned.

Why would you even need a VPN for private trackers?
