If you are a pirate VPN is an essential tool. I am trying to ascertain the popularity of various VPNs in piracy community. In this excerise, I will list several Popular VPNs in the comment if you use one of them just upvote that comment and reply the reason. If you don't find your VPN listed add a comment with just their name. Reply the reason to it. This make it easier to understand the real life user cases.

P.S: I am only looking for paid VPNs please don't mention "free vpn".

Interesting, I haven't experienced anything like this with regards to torrent failures. I don't entirely follow what failure means in this context though. I have torrents that have never completed due to lack of seeds and peers. I don't think I've had a torrent fail in thousands over the last few years (data based on my current NAS box, but was true prior to that too)

That's what failing means here. You know how you sometimes see a torrent site list a non-zero number of seeders but when you try to download it, you don't connect to any of them and it shows 0 seeders in your client? That's what happens when neither you nor the seeders have port forwarding set up.
