Just making sure I’m not missing something obvious:
Self-hosted Linux VM with protonVPN and QBitorrent installed on it.
QBittorrent networking bound only to ProtonVPN’s virtual interface with killswitch and secure core enabled.
Auto updates enabled and a scripted alert system if ProtonVPN dies. Obviously everything with very secure unique passwords.
Is this a safe setup to run 24/7 to torrent and seed with?
Are there any significant risks I’m missing? Thanks, fellow sea salts!
FDE is for physical attackers, it would have nothing to do with torrenting unless you’re really intending on pissing off every single criminal legal authority and not just worried about civil suits from copyright holders.
Nah. If you piss off the executive branch in your country, then they can more likely than not force you to hand over the decryption key. Plausible deniability doesn’t exist when an encrypted drive of likely illegal content chills there in your room.
