Other people have already answered this but keep in mind a lot of them are browser based. Even if you are using a web UI for your torrent client that's not going to protect you. I've seen a few people here make that mistake.
Have you considered looking into direct downloads?
They are a bit more work but if you are motivated on going in without protection it's a safer alternative.
If it helps you rationalise the cost of a VPN you can always think about how much money you save compare to paying for subscription services.
