I heard about this VPN in one of my recent threads here, and I believe Lemmy is cleaner than Reddit, so here I am, ready to read what you think about the service.

Would you use it to torrent? I said I only needed to watch movies, but eventually the stuff I watch is in a "niche" language, and the sites are overcrowded, so downloading from torrent is probably the best way (at the moment I'm downloading from the streaming sites through an app and Proton, but it's getting a bit slow).

^ It's not even Proton that's the problem; it's the sites that are slow as heck, and downloading an episode each evening sometimes is too much of a PITA. (while watching it like a normal user, well after dinner is basically a 1-minute wait every 10-15 seconds or something like that)

But what is their motivation to buy servers and rent bandwidth if they already got the money but can't expect another payment?

Death of the universe? No, more like the end of civilization if things around us change too much too fast.
