VPN Service will Block BitTorrent and Keep Logs

VPN.ht has settled a copyright infringement lawsuit filed by a group of independent movie companies earlier this year. As part of the deal, the VPN agreed to block all BitTorrent traffic and log IP-address information on its US servers. While this a controversial order, VPN.ht says that users are still protected as the company will stop using US servers.

I never use US servers, torrenting is legal in the Netherlands, so use server in NL or Sweden.
