Hello all,

I am running fedora with mullvad (wireguard) straight from the network settings with a configuration file.

According to https://mullvad.net/en/check everything is fine but I want to know if I am set for torrenting now that they have removed port forwarding and I cannot bind qbittorrent to the vpn.

Should I adjust anything or am I set? What was the benefit of port forwarding?

They're owned by a sketchy company. Worth looking into, but the general advice is to stay far and wide away from Kape Technologies.

I remember the purchase a few years back but PIA was still proven to not keep logs and be just as secure, no?

Might be the case, and most probably true. But not a risk I'm taking, also not giving that company my money.
