Anonymity

hey, does anybody know how to use a good anonymity service for torrenting? I tried to use a secure VPN, but I noticed I couldn't seed any torrents that way until I turned VPN off. Anybody can help?

I use Private Internet Access. If you find a referral code (Youtube has millions) you can get it for about 60 bucks for 2 years. I've never had any trouble doing anything I wanted to on PIA. Only issue i've noticed over the last year or so is a large number of major companies blocking access to their websites from VPN access. Pizza Hut and Gamestop are two of the major ones that ring a bell of the top of my head.Any more questions feel free to ask.

I personally use NordVPN. Inexpensive (if you find the deals - their full price is downright absurd)...I like that I can choose my location... I can, for example, choose a server in Atlanta so I can watch local Atlanta shows. I can also choose a UK server and watch content that is geo-restricted to the UK.
I do have some minor issues - for example, in their zeal to protect me from ads and popups, most top-line Google search responses are blocked (you have to find the "native" result below)... and often, when I search on Google at all, I have to perform a "captcha" because they see sooo much traffic from the NordVPN sites.
Also, I have no trouble seeding torrents through my NordVPN - though the frequency of people downloading from me is far FAR less when I'm on the VPN....
