I have been seeding until I reach a 3 ratio, so am I doing so through my real ip?

Is it visible to copyright holders?

I did bind qbittorrent to the mullvad interface so there is no doubt I am using the VPN, the question is how is it possible that I am reaching a 3 ratio when I shouldn't be able to seed at all?

Found this apparently other people are seeding as well

    I've been downloading and seeding ever since too. People are dismissing / moving away from mullvad for nothing.

    That's why I said (basically). If another user has a port open and you connect to them through their open port, a bidirectional connection gets established and then you can also upload. But if the other user also didn't have a port open, then BitTorrent wouldn't work. You rely on other people to have ports open, if everyone was using mullvad, then it would stop working.
