Hi there is a thing I don't understand regarding VPN:

If I get a VPN client installed on my computer, I can create a secure encrypted connection to a VPN server. But if I was to download torrents from different websites, how do I then make sure my connection to those websites is VPN? Do websites such as thepiratebay use vpn?

Your connection to those sites is on VPN, when VPN is turned on, your whole internet browsing traffic goes through that VPN.Piratebay uses many servers worldwide, such as cloud severs, servers in North Korea and so on.However, make sure that things are fine on your end (VPN) instead of worrying about TPB.

Ahh I see, thank you

good luck with the uploading speeds
