For this very reason, I have my VPN set up so that if it’s off, the whole internet connection is shut off. And as a backup, my torrent app will only work through the VPN interface, not the general network. I know what I’m like, and would definitely forget this all the time lol.
IME it’s not even a question of forgetting. The so called kill switch doesn’t always work, even for an instant. Scary stuff. Luckily you can bind Qbit to your VPN of choice, as you’ve also done(also qbit?), so that prevents leaks.
On an entirely unrelated note, I don’t recommend surfshark. LOL.
But it still really sucks. One small leak and they can tie your IP to everything.
Yeah I use QBittorrent, and Mullvad for a VPN (although I’ll probably switch soon once my subscription runs out.)
