Are you wondering why I prefer to use NordVPN for torrenting?
Here are few things that we should consider while choosing a good VPN. And we will see if NordVPN (VPN I use for torrenting) has it or not.
1. Number of Servers & Dedicated P2P (Torrenting ) Servers
A good VPN should have a sufficient number of servers and dedicated servers for torrenting. A large number of servers allows you to connect fast servers and bypass geoblocks and restrictions easily. And P2P dedicated servers helps in downloading torrents faster. And NordVPN has a huge network of 5,400+ servers in 59 countries across the world. The UK alone has 440+ servers. Also, it has dedicated servers all around the world you can choose from.
2. Security
A good VPN should have high encryption and no-logs policy with features like kill switch to avoid data leaks. And NordVPN offers 256 bit military-grade encryption to keep you protected online all the time. Even when there is a connection drop or you are switching servers, kill switch ensure your personal data is not leaked accidentally. If you are torrenting then I’ll suggest you to use Kill Switch.
3. Ad blocker
Torrent sites generally have a lot of irrelevant prono, casino ads, popups which may also lead to some spammy sites containing malware. This is a major drawback of torrent sites. But a good VPN also offers Ad blocker feature, which can help to prevent all types of malicious sites and irrelevant ads. And NordVPN have Cybersec feature which will help you with this problem. Make sure to enable this feature while torrenting.
4. Privacy
To ensure maximum privacy a good VPN should have no-logs policy, so they do not store any information (like IP Address location & website visited) about you. And NordVPN is based in Panama, which is outside of 5 eyes, 9 eyes, and 14 Eye surveillance so they have no obligations to store users’ data (IP address, connection logs) and other activities. And it has strict no-logs policy. I’ve also tried to perform leak tests and check if my real IP is protected or not. Every time NordVPN successfully passed all the tests.
5. Speed
To download torrents or to stream Netflix, BBC iPlayer and other streaming sites also to download you need a high speed VPN and with NordVPN you’ll get enough speed to download torrents with fast speed and also stream in Ultra HD seamlessly.
6. User Interface
A good VPN should have easy to install and use apps for different platforms. And NordVPN provides apps for all major platforms like Android, iOS, Windows, and macOS, Routeres and other platforms with one click you can connect with NordVPN servers.
