Hi all, I'm about to visit Mexico for 3 weeks. Currently in my country, I can download torrents and other stuff without VPN. Is it the same over there as well? I'd be using Wi-Fi over there.

Yeah my VPN (Mullvad) is super affordable and I just leave it on all the time so I never have to worry.

Also maybe a seedbox could work for this sort of situation? I'm not overly familiar with them but I assume that would also just be running no matter where OP is.

Yep, a seedbox is also a great solution. VPN’s and seedboxes are like airbags—you probably don’t need them most of the time, but you will be very glad you had them when you do.
