have fun pirating stuff with your subscription based torrent client, that communicates home and whose operators know your payment information ;w;

You joke, but it really exists: the company that acquired uTorrent 17 years ago now sells an ad-free version of their current torrent client as "BitTorrent Pro" for USD$20/year, or alternatively as part of a VPN service bundle for $70/year.

Needless to say, stick with FOSS clients like qBittorrent/Deluge/etc instead.
