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

      Bro, don’t crap on SoulSeek. Music collectors all over the world use it. You can find some rare gems on there you won’t find in Spotify, Tidal, YouTube or any other music platform.

      And comparing it to limewire is kind of unfair.
