Best VPN for privacy when downloading torrents?

Hey all, I’m in need of some serious advice. I’ve been using a VPN for a while now while downloading torrents, but after hearing about some issues with security and data leaks, I’m second-guessing whether it’s actually keeping me safe.

I’m looking for a VPN that’s fast, reliable, and really protects my privacy. I use it mostly for torrenting and streaming content, so I need something that won’t slow me down and will make sure my data stays protected.

What do you all think is the best option for staying secure while torrenting? What features do you think are essential for privacy and speed?

Would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions, thanks in advance!
