A lot of my files were shitty 480p versions of movies from the Napster days. Now they're all 1080p, with a few 720p exceptions (mainly tv series episodes). All in all 500 something files in total. Now just watching uTorrent slowly download them all. Hopefully my VPN keeps the eyes off of me...

NordVPN has a no logs policy that they've been third party audited about multiple times though?

Well I'll be damned, I trusted the hivemind on privacy communities on Lemmy and was needlessly jaded against a good service. I'll stick my foot in my mouth.

Despite what the hiveminds on lemmy/reddit piracy forums think because of all the advertising Nord does, it's actually a really great vpn. It lacks port forwarding, but it has one of the best audited no logs policies, accepts crypto and cash, and is on the very small list of VPN providers that Arch Wiki has a page about.
