    Bulgaria, Hong Kong, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Netherlands, Russia, Cyprus, Moldova, Romania, Ukraine, Singapore, and Sweden. They all spit in the eye of DMCA.

    VPS in any of these countries, or just find a provider that doesn’t care about torrenting. If you go the VPS option, run your own VPN and just look for a VPS that allows considerable traffic. A quick example, Ultahost (Netherlands) offers a VPS with unlimited bandwidth for $7/mo if you pay for 3 years in advance. Like sure, now you’re paying to torrent, but I would rather pay $7/mo to protect myself with a VPN that I control vs worrying about port forwarding and getting DMCA’s in the mail. 🤷‍♂️ I guess it depends on how much skin you want in the game.

    IPv6. My stupid ISP actually shipped their router with all inbound ipv6 blocked with no way to unblock it, so I set up opnsense. Works like a charm!

      Does port forwarding really matter if you have a Holborn 9100?

      Does port forwarding really matter if you have Hannah Montana Linux?

      Does port forwarding really matter if you have a Dawson’s Creek trapper keeper?

      Bc $$$.

      My provider won’t allow it unless I pay them $15/mo extra.

      You can change the setting on your router anytime but it won’t work if your ISP doesn’t actually allow it.

      There are providers that do not provide you your own IPv4 address, with a feature called “CGNAT”. Often, they will then block you from port-forwarding altogether.
