https://hexbear.net/post/1326 there ya go! It’s a good place to start. IIRC most VPNs are comparable in price if not cheaper than streaming services (with a much bigger return on investment), so if you have say Netflix and are willing to part with it it’d probably even out.

Mullvad is very cheap, clocks in at around 5.50 USD per month, no subscription required. Sometimes I let it expire and don’t re-up until I come up with a couple things that I want to torrent.

NordVPN, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it - I think they got into hot water for shoddy privacy practices kind of recently? I’m stuck with them for two more years though, so oh well. That said, my UNDERSTANDING is that most VPNs are good enough for torrenting, since it’s a relatively low risk activity to begin with. Again, not an expert so I’d do a little more digging before committing to one. And let me see if I can find the Lemmy thread for ya.
