Hello,

I am using qbittorrent for torrenting and my ISP has refused to open up firewall because of fucking “security” reasons. however I can still seed the torrent how is that possible? I mean all the incoming connections should be blocked right? isn’t it how firewall works?

    Yes, ProtonVPN still provides port forwarding. They randomly assign you a single port every time you connect, so you’ll have to update the settings in qB occasionally, but it’s manageable.
