What is the best free VPN for use with Torrents?

Question

A few notes:
I'm looking for something with an unlimited amount of data. No 10 Gigs per month or whatever, I already have that.

Bandwidth limiting is fine, but I'm looking for something that gets over 100KB/S.

I only want this VPN for getting past a corporate firewall. I intend to use this VPN exclusively for downloading legally free software, not pirating, so I DON'T CARE ABOUT PRIVACY, as long as my identity isn't being stolen by a scam VPN :P

Hopefully, someone will answer this with something other than "Free VPNs suck because they log you. You should use one of these paid VPNs I'm advertising here," or "Durrrrr, torrenting is bad, durrrrr."

Answer 1

HotSpot Shield VPN is free, Unlimited upload and download. It's USA only so it might not be ideal if your not in the US.



I suggest just getting PeerBlock, This is a free program that blocks over 1 billion IP addresses. Including those packet sniffers your trying to dodge. I was caught pirating 8 years ago, I got PeerBlock and was never caught again.

Answer 2

It is not clear to me that Torrents are effective through proxy servers. By VPN, you are actually referring to a proxy server with an encrypted link between you and the proxy.



Since torrents use peer-to-peer connections, I am not sure how a connection can be established between two torrent sites if both are using proxies. How will a proxy work out which of its clients is to receive an incoming connection from another torrent host?

Answer 3

For a bit of lateral thinking - how about an IPv6 tunnel?



That should get you past the firewall and most larger web sites / torrent sites are available via IPv6 now.



In effect it's a VPN but one carrying ipv6 data from your machine via an ipv4 tunnel.

I use sixxs, it is totally free and unrestricted.
