Torrent Privacy – Is It a Scam?
If you want to know the truth, read on...
From the desk of Patrick Peyre
I'm sure you already heard of a service called Torrent-Privacy.com, which promises completely anonymous and secure torrent downloads, while circumventing ISP BitTorrent throttling.
You probably already know it…
These days, more and more people are getting sued while downloading and end up paying hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
Now, we here at Torrent Review have seen almost every single anonymization service out there, and trust me – Most of them are difficult to use, insecure and slow.
But this one was new to us.
Can they be trusted, or is it a ripoff?
We wanted to find out and signed up for an account.
So, how does it work?
When you download with an usual torrent client, your IP can be seen by everyone, including the copyright industry and other harmful people. Plus, most of the times your downloads will be unencrypted, meaning your ISP may spy on your traffic.
Torrent Privacy provides you with a special version of uTorrent, which transfers all the data through an encrypted connection to the Torrent Privacy servers, thus making you completely anonymous.
This sounds too good to be true, right?
And usually, it takes up to several hours to get these kind of services, such as VPNs (Relakks, Ipredator…) up and running safely.
But to our shock, this is a whole lot different with Torrent Privacy…
In ~5 minutes, the software was installed and ready to use.
Which brings us to our first point: How easy is it to setup the software?
In just 2 easy steps, you can start downloading.
1. After starting the program, you have to chose a connection point. We selected USA, and clicked on connect.
As there're several of these, you get the best speed possible no matter where you are located – Even from the UK, Canada and Europe.
2. Ready! After a few seconds, uTorrent can be started with the "Launch" button. Then, just use it like you always do. But how fast is the download?
Let's find out:
Wow – That's almost fullspeed on my lousy 10 Mbit connection at home! Other users which use Torrent Privacy told us that it is possible to obtain download speeds of up to 100 Mbit (only if you have this type of connection of course).
But what with all the other sites such as Ipredator, Relakks and similar VPN based services?
Simple: They also make you anonymous – But to protect yourself from disconnects and all other sorts of problems, you'll need hours and a lot of patience.
With Torrent Privacy, you just install the software and you're done – Continue to download as usual, only completely protected.
Summary:
TorrentPrivacy is one of the easiest, fastest and cheapest ways to download completely securely, without having to fear your ISP sending you dumb letters or the copyright mafia sueing you for downloading.
The software can be set up in a matter of minutes, you're protected against disconnects, any kind of lawsuits and everything is as easy as 1-2-3.
A clear recommendation!
