Anyone got any VPNs to recommend? I know there's a lot of varying quality out there. I'll appreciate any recommendations, but I'm just looking to pirate games (in U.S.) and not get a letter from my ISP, so whatever is simple and easy for that purpose.

NordVPN seems pretty solid. Been using it for a bit over a year. Price seemed reasonable when I bought into the plan. I'm definitely not a super genius when it comes to this stuff and it was able to get it set up on my ancient PC and slightly less ancient iPhone without too much trouble.

I've torrented and seeded a few small handfulls of movies/TV series and download ROMS/.ISO's fairly frequently and the speeds are good enough for me.

I know there's instructions for using NordVPN on a Linux machine but its more of the "everything is done through command line instead of GUI interface" and I haven't forced myself to stare at the walkthroughs and commit myself to "trial and error" by fire yet.
