@ -3,8 +3,6 @@ Since v2.9.0, qBittorrent supports a feature called "Anonymous Mode".
When enabled, qBittorrent tries to hide its identity to a certain degree:
* The peer-ID will no longer include the client's fingerprint.
* The user-agent will be reset to an empty string.
* Trackers will only be used if they are connected via proxy server.
* The listening sockets are closed, and incoming connections will only be accepted through SOCKS5 or I2P proxy (if a peer proxy is set up and is run on the same machine as the tracker proxy).
* Since no incoming connections are accepted, NAT-PMP, UPnP, DHT and local peer discovery are all turned off when this setting is enabled.
* Other identifying information will not be leaked, such as your local listen port, your IP etc.
If you're using I2P, it might make sense to enable anonymous mode as well.
If you're using I2P, a VPN or a proxy, it might make sense to enable anonymous mode.
