Adblocking
Don't run multiple general adblockers (e.g., uBlock Origin and Adblock Plus) simultaneously to avoid breakage. Combining general adblockers with tools like SponsorBlock is fine.

DNS Adblocking
If your goal is to block browser ads, it's best to just stick with uBlock Origin, as additional filters can cause conflicts or anti-adblock.

VPN
For torrenting, it's recommended to use a paid rather than free VPN. Free VPNs are only really useful for things like viewing sites blocked by your ISP / country.
