VPN isn’t enough, you gotta worry about fingerprinting and cookies too. Recently it was revealed that Windows 11 has strong fingerprinting options that could be used to track you.

I wonder if they were using a VPN or seedbox. You could even do remote desktop into seedbox and browse the sites from there.
A VPN is about as useful as an ashtray in a convertible. They can just have a judge issue a court order and that VPN will have to give out your real IP.
Was always wondering… what is the best way to get access to a seedbox that is not linked to you through a financial trail?
Some seedbox services seem to accept cryptocurrency, although if they don’t accept an anonymous one like Monero then you’ll need to do some extra steps to remove the ability to trace the transactions. They may use a third party crypto payment service that will try to ID you so that’s another potential hurdle (after some googling I found a seedbox service that’s using bitpay, and bitpay has hassled me for using a VPN before). Possibly there’s a wider range of options with VPS providers.
