Seed box or VPN should be options.

NordVPN will log and share your data if ordered by court. They've confessed as much last year.

A company admitting they comply with the law when ordered to by the court is a positive to me as it means that they don't do it unless they don't do it on a whim and they are complying with the law, which would most likely also include privacy laws. Any company that would refuse a court order is going to be shut down and probably have all of their records turned over instead of the narrow subset that would be ordered by a court.

You do you but it also means that if they suspect you of illegal downloads or streams and get that court order, that they'll log that shit and then you'll receive those lovely letters eventually, making the whole point of the VPN pointless.
