mullvad and proton stand as vpn. However, mullvad does not allow torrenting because there is no port forwarding. Mullvad should not be on the list

Port forwarding allows connecting to peers who have not set it up (for both leeching and seeding). Two peers without port forwarding can't connect to each other, if you set it up you can connect to every peer in the swarm. Torrenting behing a VPN always hides your real IP address๐Ÿ˜‰
