As I mentioned in another comment about using VPN for torrents:
> That isn't great privacy wise as it's still privacy by policy. The best way to torrent is to use i2p which - unlike Tor - encourages that activity. (Short tuto: the default Java i2p bundle already comes with I2PSnark, a torrent client. To download a torrent, search through known i2p trackers such as the Postman Tracker: http://tracker2.postman.i2p )
You need to look up what stremio (https://www.strem.io/) is and understand the value proposal for the casual non tech saavy end user. This is the face of torrenting now. Not magnet links. People don't know what a URL is anymore, don't expect them to understand a classic torrent client or i2P.
Since we're talking about it: what's the value proposition in creating an illegal service for non tech savvy end users?
I'm trying to figure out why they made this. They can't really run ads without ending up like the founder of TPB.
Regardless, it doesn't seem unreasonable to expect people to know what a magnet link is. When all you need to do is download transmission and click on a magnet link, people are fine with that.
You mentioned stremio and I respectably pointed out that it's not going to work over i2p for reasons mentioned above. I don't even see why you're mentioning it when we're talking about privacy.
> My whole point is that people use VPN for torrenting so Tor would not help and i2P neither.
My point was that I2P can help them since it's (a) torrent friendly, (b) has a bundled Torrent client (I2PSnark), (c) there are many eepsite torrent trackers such as: http://tracker2.postman.i2p
