This article is from March of last year, and a quick google seems to show that’s when most outlets covered this story. Am I right in seeing that this is a year-old story? The article mentioning things that happened in 2021 as “last year” caught my attention
This was news at the time, but the truth is that they blocked BT traffic from US servers, not worldwide.
If nothing has changed, this is mostly a non-story.
Gotta fill up that content somehow
I don’t mind too much, I didn’t know TorGuard was blocking that traffic or logging American users but now I do. So I appreciate the article in that regard but the post should’ve been titled like “Reminder that TorGuard tracks American users” or something rather than being presented as new info imo.
They are not logging American users; they disabled Bittorrent traffic for any user connected to a US server.
Interesting, thanks for the additional info!
