These fucking things always tip-toe around the issue anyone wants a VPN for: Piracy.
Are you pirating shit? Yes? Use a VPN.
Are you pirating shit? No? Guess what, use a VPN!
I mean, legit true though. A lot of ISPs are selling your data now too.
I pirate and seed shit from Mexico no issues without VPN… My only headache is CGNAT.
I am so sorry. How do you usually circumvent that bs ?
Depending on your ISP sometimes you can just call them, ask to opt out of cg-nat and they will do it for free.
For seeding? Out of luck as I don’t have a VPS currently, I used one to open my ports with some hacky ways using Wireguard and IPtables stuff, if there is a better way I would like to know lol.
Now I just constantly seed in hopes that people with the ports opened can access my stuff.
For accessing my files, Zerotier and Tailscale have been a godsend.
I also happen to have IPv6 support and I can access some exposed services through it without too much hassle, Plex and Bitwarden are two big examples.
Just so you know Proton VPN has port forwarding if you can afford them.
No issues yet…
Sadly the country has a lot of other shit to worry about, I don’t expect that to change in the short or long time lol.
You’d be surprised how terrible politician priorities are
and you don’t live in a third world country 🙃
Hooray for third world freedom. I’ve been raw-dogging torrent for years.
