So I use a VPN when torrenting as per usual but with Soulseek I wish to share my music with others and that requires me to open a port. I have no problem doing so I just do not pay for a VPN that can do this at the current price I am paying. Is it possible/what are the chances of me getting in trouble ISP wise from using soulseek with no VPN. With where I live I would get in trouble with no VPN and torrents for clarity.
I see posts from years ago saying no just wondering if things have changed.

Thanks

    Survivorship bias is about surviving/passing a filter or selection process that’s actually happened, not one that could theoretically happen one day.

      It happened, that P2P users have been sued because lawyers were getting into the share and wrote down the IPs of the other user.

        The statement to which you replied wasn’t about p2p users; it was about Soulseek. His perspective isn’t a matter of his bias, but rather the complete lack of lawsuits against Soulseek users.

          You should change your scope then and stop looking only at the platform but at the technology, because it is the point of breach.
