I think most people will tell you that there's no need to use a VPN with Usenet. I personally do not. However, if one was to put any of the containers behind the VPN, I think that SABnzbd would be the one to do it with.
I'm not a Usenet expert so feel free to correct me.
Correct because the connection to usenet these days is with SSL, so the ISP is in the dark of what is being transferred.
If you'd rather your ISP not know where you are connecting you can get SABnzbd dockers with VPN built in that will killswitch if the VPN drops.
I do the VPN anyway because that's how I set it up years back, and I just like the layer of privacy.
