    How to blocked torrent traffic?

    Hi there

    i run a VPN service company, some people use my service to do illegal torrent file sharing.

    i have already blocked port 6881-6889, but seems it's useless

    How can i block all kind of torrent traffic?

    Expect some unhappy customers though .. one of the main reason people buy VPNs is to torrent warez, especially as you advertise yours as an "Offshore VPN Service"

    Yes, it's off-shore, but it is not on US servers, i made a clear statement on my site that US server are NOT allowed to do torrent things, however there are still people doing that, i'm upset

    As long as you comply with requests you are within the DMCA safe-harbour. So just discontinue service to anyone who abuses service and you can allow people to torrent their linux distros over your US VPN, if they so wish
