How about ProtonVPN? They are free-ish but only to a certain extent so you could also say they are a paid product as well. Are they decent for this task?

Edit: I was not specific enough but I do meant If you are a paid subscriber, is protonvpn okay for this task?

ProtonVPN explicitly denies Torrenting in their ToS when you are a FREE user. You must purchase their service before torrenting.

ProtonVPN is fine if you purchase a Plus plan or better

AFAIK their free tier doesn’t do P2P.

I use protonVPN exclusively for torrenting. I highly recommend it
