How are other VPN services able to do port forwarding without having this problem?
They force you to pay with KYC money... No Pedo is stupid enough to be spreading CSAM on that VPN
Given how often I see articles where a pedo was caught because they were sending photos over telegram unencrypted or similar. I do think many are that stupid.
Much like other criminals, only the stupid ones get caught. Look at how many of those articles say that they'd been doing it for decades. Many more of them are out there right now.
AirVPN doesn't.
I think that's another reputable VPN?
Then my theory might be debunked or they will get forced to cut off port forwarding too
I'm not sure. Some people say that because they're in Italy which is part of the N eyes, they're not trustworthy.
Then there's the fact that they haven't been audited independently. The admin says it's because audits are security theater not real proof of privacy, so he'd rather not give some 3rd party root access to the servers.
