Your IP Address Is Visible to Everyone

When you stream with torrent-based addons, your IP is broadcast to the entire swarm. Copyright holders monitor these networks. A VPN hides your real IP.

How Torrent Streaming Exposes You

Stremio addons like Torrentio use peer-to-peer technology. When you watch a movie, your device connects directly to dozens of other users sharing that file. Every connection reveals your IP address.

What can happen

  • Your IP is logged — Anti-piracy companies run monitoring nodes in torrent swarms
  • ISP warnings — Your internet provider can see torrent traffic and may send notices
  • DMCA letters — Copyright holders send legal notices to the address tied to your IP

This isn't hypothetical. Monitoring companies like Rightscorp and MarkMonitor actively track torrent activity and send thousands of notices monthly.

How a VPN Protects You

A VPN routes your traffic through an encrypted server. Instead of your home IP appearing in the torrent swarm, the VPN server's IP appears.

Without VPN

Your IP (73.162.xxx.xxx) connects to peers, trackers, and streaming servers. Anyone in the swarm can see it.

With VPN

The VPN server's IP (198.51.xxx.xxx) connects to peers. Your real IP stays hidden. The VPN connection is encrypted, so your ISP only sees encrypted traffic to the VPN server.

Questions

Does this work with all Stremio addons?

Yes. The VPN protects all your internet traffic, including any addon that uses torrents like Torrentio, or direct streaming sources.

Why WireGuard?

WireGuard is the modern standard for VPN protocols. It's faster and more secure than OpenVPN, with better battery life on mobile. That's why NordVPN built NordLynx on top of it.

What happens when my session expires?

Your VPN server is destroyed. All logs, configs, and data are deleted. There's nothing to trace back to you.

Can I use this on multiple devices?

Yes. One session works on all your devices simultaneously. Phone, tablet, laptop, TV — all protected with the same config.

What regions are available?

US East, US West, Canada, UK, Germany, Netherlands, Singapore, India, and Australia. Select your preferred region at checkout.
