Is webtor.io (or similars) the free and reliable way of torrenting I always wanted?
Just that, I found this web while looking on FMHY and this seems to be the perfect torrenting tool. Is it really?
It seems to have no GB cap though it has speed-cap but it is not that important. And most importantly it is free

Maybe you're right. I've been looking for the location of their servers and I can't find anything. Why does it matter? Just to know, so I can avoid sketchy sites. Also, I just though it is safe as it is recommended on fmhy. So I think I will try it some time.
Also, do you know any alternatives? I just want something similar to a seeebox but free. I am too cheap, I know.
Basically, you're routing your traffic through their servers so you want to know if you can trust them. Anything that goes through a proxy server or VPN server, the owner of that server can see EVERYTHING you're doing. The most popular VPN providers will submit to third-party audits so that we can be (relatively) certain that they don't keep logs of what you download and hand them over to the authorities.
Generally, if it's free, you don't want it. You already know the rule: if it sounds good to be true, it usually is. You're telling me that somebody is spending their own money to run a server? Servers are not cheap. AND they're going to protect me when the police come knocking? All for free??? I smell bullshit.
Yeah you're probably right. Thanks for the advise.
