To put it short, can I use ProtonVPN free for XDCC? I don’t want to be handed out a nice DMCA letter as I don’t manage the ISP. I would get a paid VPN but I’m currently paying off student debt, maybe I’ll do it later. But for now, is ProtonVPN free an okay VPN?
Many thanks in advance.
Are you sure you actually need a VPN for XDCC? In most countries that I know of, downloading pirated content isn’t technically illegal. It’s the sharing of that content (i.e. torrenting) that often is.
Anyway, the bandwith on ProtonVPN free won’t be enough to download at reasonable speeds.
Proton is basically the only service i pay for, and its absolutely worth its money.
