If that works for you, that's absolutely fine. No judgment. You do you.

All I want is for people to know that there's another alternative to torrent clients and VPNs. That said, use what you're comfortable with, but if I can convince even one person that there's a better way, then my job here is done.

I have nothing to gain from my little crusade; I didn't even post an affiliate link even though the option is there. Just trying to inform those who are interested. There's no wrong way to sail the high seas, just faster routes to your destination. ;)

Edit: And BTW, your IP logging concerns were addressed in the reddit thread I linked to.

Can you point me to where my concerns are addressed? I read the following:

  • You don't need to worry about the following:
    • IP address leaking

How does this address my concerns of the service itself logging my IP address though?

Logging IP addr and payment details unless they take monero.*
