    Bind your client to the torrenting software! Even with the best VPNs leaks can and will happen, so prepare for it.

      I use a “virgin” installation of Brave for torrent browsing only and qBittorent, both bound to Private Internet Access.

          It’s a setting in private internet access that restricts apps that you set to communicating only through VPN. If you are not connected with the VPN, the apps will not function. Kind of like a app specific kill switch

            That’s basically split tunnelling which is not what I’m referring to. In my case I use qbittorrent, and in the advanced settings you can make it only download through a specific network adapter, which is infinitely better than split tunneling. I recommend you to try that!
