If you're using proton and your isp found out, something is configured wrong or working incorrectly. (or user error 😢)
Honestly, I've come to seriously dislike Proton. Yeah, it's cool they don't log any data, but they're starting the ai shit and their fucking UPGRADE NOW shit everywhere just because I use the free email (I have literally zero use for any of the paid features). It's commercializing and enshittifying rapidly.
I contacted Proton's support and everything was configured correctly. My ISP is Verizon (I don't have a choice) and they're the kind of fucks that would do deep packet sniffing, so I wouldn't be surprised if that's why.
They shouldn't be able to see anything except encrypted wireguard traffic. Are you sure all torrent-related traffic is going through the VPN (e.g. requests to indexers) and that traffic stops flowing when the VPN connection drops?
Yeah, it was the stand-alone app, not the browser extension. When it's on, everything goes through it.
Have you verified that? I would start by checking (with wireshark) for any non-wireguard traffic coming from your machine
