After a lengthy $10,000,000 lawsuit, TorGuard has conceded to movie studios and is now banning BitTorrent traffic and is now keeping logs on American users and servers.

I still use it today for torrenting…if it’s from last year wouldn’t it not work anymore? I didn’t see an effective date

I’ve noticed within the last month I’ve had to switch location server to a non-American one. I’m not seeing in that article that they keep log info now though, do you?

[–] communistcapy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No. And their website still says that they don't keep logs, and I can find no other information indicating otherwise. If it was the case, I'd have canceled immediately.

Same. I’ll have to contact their support to confirm.
