Let's see them banning seedboxes LMAO
But what a PITA it would be if you have to use a seedbox for everything, and also expensive if you want/need to keep seeding torrents for extended periods of time so you're not just doing hit'n'runs. But yeah, piracy is pretty much always going to find a way to exist.
And seedboxes of course does nothing for the far more important general online privacy.
I believe the general population will have to become savvy enough to run their own VPNs from their personal VPSes. Also there are affordable seedbox providers which will let you have a decent amount of bandwidth for seeding, but yes I generally agree with your point. We need more upload bandwidth with seedboxes
