Personnaly I would recommend pia for VPN torrenting, it's not private but it's good for this use case
Why do you say PIA isn't private?
I'm not really an expert but it not known to be private, it's almost like when using any mainstream VPNs
You are spreading disinformation.
PIA has stood up in court multiple times previously: https://torrentfreak.com/private-internet-access-no-logging-claims-proven-true-again-in-court-180606/.
So unless you have a reliable source, you are wrong.
I wouldn't say that pia is the worst in term of "privacy" but you will agree with me that it's not a recommended VPN when talking about his category. Maybe it's just a really bad misconception and I'm sorry. But I would not really recommend this VPN if any.
(But you shouldn't justify yourself by using a 2018 article, and even more when talking about "no logging") Indeed, I'm wrong.
