Firefox’s free VPN will offer 50 gigabytes of monthly data, which is pretty generous for a browser-based VPN. A Mozilla account is required to make use of it, which isn’t a hardship (they’re free), but is a point of friction some may wish to know upfront.



I keep hearing about people dropping Mullvad for port forwarding…why do y’all need port forwarding while trying to stay anonymous?
AFAIK torrent. But I’ve been torrenting all my life without port forward and I have all the seasons from my favorite Linux distros,.
If I can’t download it without jumping through yet more hoops, I’m sure I don’t really need that particular Linux distribution.
It is basically a requirement in most private trackers. Either because it literally is, or to be able to hit seeding limits quickly.
Torrents, you can’t peer with other people behind NAT.
