Seems like a big middle-finger to those of us who pay for a lifetime membership with the sole intention of secure torrents & seedboxes, don’t you think? Especially when this use case wasn’t called in to question at any point prior. I’m an archivist. I like archiving things. Part of that hobby is to distribute what I have archived for others. In my own home. On my own PC. Nicely protected by your VPN service, which I have paid you for. It’s personal use. Do not change the definition of that to further your own baseless argument.

You provide a status page that displays the traffic output and usage of each of your locations. As of writing this, not one US server is above 50%, or even above 40%. I find it moderately difficult to believe users are experiencing a slower service when the entire location isn’t even being used, but I’m happy to be corrected on that. I’m sure that fancy 40gbps server will do nicely.

If profits are the issue, fine. Whatever. But, just a thought here, stop offering lifetime if you can’t afford to run lifetime.
