I accidentally turned off my VPN for like a few minutes while torrenting and Comcast immediately wagged their finger at me. Cover your ass.
Word to the wise.
You need a killswitch. When my VPN goes down it terminates the BitTorrent process
What happens if you start the torrent client without the VPN already running?
Bind your torrent client to the VPN interface, then you won't even need a killswitch.
