I guess this settles it for me. What VPN should I go for?

Apparently I downloaded the fate of the furious 4 hours ago on mobile data according to it?

turned on a vpn and 2 notable things on here are someone downloading one piece books and probably illegal content

Yeah I am not familiar with mobile data, but I suspect mobile ips are dynamic or shared. Apparently my mobile-data-neighbor downloaded porn.

The folks on similar IPs to me really like porn.

I’m on Nord. I know a lot of folks on here diss it, but I’ve been mostly happy with it.

[–] kerrigan778@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Honest question, why do people diss on Nord? (I'm also happy with Nord)

Thanks for the link! I lost this a while ago and I was loathe to find it. It comes around, doesn’t it? 😊

Just checked my own and was surprised nothing came up. I'd have thought I would have downloaded legit torrents from Ubuntu or Archive.org at the very least.

[–] bighatchester@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Well they know what I downloaded but I dont really care . Is there anything my Canadian ISP can do ?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

There's a small chance you'll get a letter with no follow-up.

I don't use a VPN nor I bother with one, I download movie torrents all the time (5 this week already) and the list is completely empty. I do have dynamic IP but ir usually only changes after I restart my router, which I haven't done for a month now.

Nope, never used a private tracker before (forgot to add this). The site just seems innacurate.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I'm fairly sure my ISP is dynamic by default, I remember a neighbour having to pay extra for a static IP for a camera networking issue.

Lol it's showing a bunch of random shit.

Thing is, it's my phone's IP. I don't download anything on this thing.

I accidentally clicked on one of the similar IPs links without realizing and someone with that ip happened to have gotten some of the same stuff I did. I was briefly quite worried.

Yay private trackers I guess.

[–] DemBoSain@midwest.social 3 points 2 years ago

I have no idea what any of this is, but Japanese Mom 2 (in Korean) sounds promising.

[–] Swim@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

proton vpn and nord vpn are the ones i use. both are great but nord is faster

[–] phx@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nord doesn't support incoming NAT ports. Neither did Mullvad anymore for that matter. Does Proton?

I have multiple torrents going right now and nothing shows up for me on the site

[–] SeaJ@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I use Windscribe. I initially used it because the free version which gives you 10GB per month was enough for me. Then there was a deal on a lifetime subscription ages ago that I got for like $15.

If anyone wants a year subscription to Speedify VPN, DM me and I'll get you a key I got in a Humble Bundle years ago that I never used.

[–] Mubelotix@jlai.lu 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Just a little disclaimer: windscribe cannot be trusted for any other use than torrenting

[–] zipkag@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Can you elaborate? Or tell me where I can read more, I did not know this
