/g/, I've been getting copyright notices from my ISP recently and am looking for ways to continue torrenting without getting threatening emails regularly from big brother. Can anyone recommend me a good VPN with no logs or anything that is fast, cheap, and allows bittorrent traffic? I mean basically the same kinds of stuff anyone who uses a VPN is interested in.
I want something that's cheap but I really don't mind paying a few extra bucks for speed. Any recommendations?

Anyone else feel we're slowly losing grasp of "our" tech?
These days, computers are pretty, easy to use and fast but they have serious compatibility problems, they don't allow you to thinker with them, you never know if you have total control over your machine or if it's doing things unbeknownst to you.

>Intel/AMD processors all have subsystems integrated in the chip that you can't access (ME/PSP)
>SSDs are fast but you can never truly erase them or know if they keep any data hidden
>USB/HDMI/etc cables could contain listening devices (see NSA leaks)
>DRM is forced into web standards
>UEFI bios and secure boot can't prevent you from installing certain OSes
>OSes contain huge amounts of telemetry that monitor everything you do and sometimes can't disable
>Google think they're the arbiter of the internet and impose things on others
>Routers and modems are compromised
>Phones are personal tracking devices that people willingly use
>OSS software like libreboot or replicant are only compatible with a small number of devices
>Our internet connections are monitored, limited and censored
>Our emails are read by third parries

We can no longer be free and private, or maybe it was always this way and we know too much.

My ISP doesn't offer more than 10/2 regardless of how much i pay them.

Does this mean i need to sell my house and move somewhere else?
What are my options?

I'm about to buy one extra stick of RAM that is only 2GB since I'm currently low on money.
It's $10.50 and since I already own 6GB (3x2GB sticks) this would complete my minimum spec requirements for most games.

The only question I have is that my current RAM runs at 665MHz, while this one runs at much higher. This won't be a problem right?
