The nature of P2P file sharing means that other users can see the IP address you’re using to share files. If that IP address is your true IP address, your metadata and location will be exposed to strangers who could track and monitor everything you download.
If you torrent without a VPN, your ISP can see that you’re torrenting and may throttle your connection to discourage you from using excess bandwidth. ISPs can also see what you’re torrenting and may decide to share it with government agencies!

No! ExpressVPN keeps no activity logs and no connection logs of any kind, so your activity can never be traced back to you. It also means ExpressVPN cannot respond to requests for data that it does not possess.
ExpressVPN works with uTorrent, BitTorrent, Transmission, qBittorrent, Deluge, or any other P2P torrenting client. ExpressVPN runs in the background to hide your IP address and encrypt your entire internet connection, so it’s fully compatible with any application that uses the internet.
ExpressVPN has easy-to-use apps for Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, Linux, and wireless routers, plus convenient setup options for a ton of other devices and platforms.
One difference is security: Free proxy services usually don’t encrypt your data at all, while ExpressVPN uses powerful 256-bit AES encryption. Another is privacy: Free proxy providers have to make money somehow, often by monetizing your traffic with ads, malware, and tracking, while ExpressVPN is fully committed to protecting your privacy. Another difference is speed: Free proxy servers are often congested and slow, while ExpressVPN provides a fast, private tunnel on a constantly optimized network.
Free proxies also don’t offer assistance when things break down, whereas ExpressVPN offers round-the-clock support from real humans via live chat.
You can try the full-featured version ExpressVPN risk-free for 30 days. If you’re not satisfied for any reason, just contact Support to get a full refund, no questions asked.
