I’m assuming it’s a Brave flaw and not PIA. This seems like a major oversight. Especially since torrenting is not enabled in private TOR windows. Using the desktop version of PIA is not an option in my situation
I haven’t received an answer yet, however, I believe the issue is specific to WebTorrent itself, perhaps it may be best to get some input/cc @feross on Github.
I feel like VPNs should either work or they shouldn’t be available. Someone who installs a VPN extension shouldn’t have to test what works and doesn’t, and they shouldn’t be surprised to find that some of the things they do in their browser don’t go over their VPN. So to the extent that we support whatever method VPN extensions use, we should support it fully. And if we don’t support it fully, we shouldn’t support it at all.
