- It doesn’t make you anonymous. Torrent protocol wasn’t designed with anonymity in mind and there are a million ways you’re going to leak your actual IP address.
- Tor is a TCP only network.
- While this doesn’t give you the anonymity you wanted, it will hurt the network for other users.
is it okay if I download a .torrent file from private trackers through TOR browser?
I wouldn’t bother tbh. As soon as you start using it in your torrent client other users can see your IP address anyway.
Seedboxes are a pretty good solution.
Unless you use a VPN or proxy.
Seedboxes are good but only seem worth the cost if you’re utilizing it a lot/frequently?
Yes, but make sure to use a VPN or a Seedbox for the actual torrenting
Not always needed with private trackers.
I’d err on the side of caution. I always use a VPN for privacy reasons, my ISP doesn’t need to know what websites I’m visiting and which P2P protocols I use. Also, there’s no need to expose my approximate geographical location to every service I connect to.
