Funds are limited at the moment and i’d rather not have a monthly subscription to worry about.
i’m not in the US, if that changes anything

    difficult and/or illegal.

    I don’t think using a VPN gets you out of the illegal part, lol.

      Since most VPNs no longer have port mapping it’s a pure download which would make it technically legal e.g. in Germany.

        You can seed without port forwarding

          Interesting, wasn’t aware. It remains illegal in Germany then, as long as you seed. Notice in Germany you will receive a nastygram in any case as long as you’ve been identified as a member in a swarm, even if you do not seed. It would be interesting if someone would contest that, though you will likely lose since technical details don’t matter in most courts.
