   ELI5, why should I boycott a VPN that's disallowing direct machine access via port forwarding?

     @dushman You missed the memo. They're not allowing new rules and are removing current rules in July. https://mullvad.net/en/blog/2023/5/29/removing-the-support-for-forwarded-ports/

     @MischievousuTomatosu Pretty sure I've seeded torrents behind my VPN (uses Mullvad) without port forwarding. Perhaps that's why I don't get the outrage.
