I use QbitTorrent. I always turn on my vpn first(NordVPN) then I downloaded Zelda echoes of wisdom. I went to play cod, I turn off my vpn when I do. I noticed I left qbittorrent running in the background with NordVPN off. I think that’s how I got caught? I’m curious… how exactly do you get caught? Is it the torrent client running without the vpn? Or the use of the actual torrent without the VPN? Never had an issue before but I was just curious if anyone knows exactly what triggers this? TIA
