I just need a VPN to download Linux ISOs from Torrent and newsgroups. PIA seems to be $80 for 3 years and they have been around for a long time. Some post are suggesting that they belong to a company with government ties and shit. Should I be concerned? There is any other VPN in that price range?

    Mullvad is great, but they just very recently took away the option of port forwarding, so torrenting with it is a problem now when it comes to seeding.

      This is true. Port forwarding is also a hassle in Proton unless you use their app.
