I think streaming is killing torrents and the fact that you need a VPN in many countries to avoid getting fined

I agree with this, I haven't torrented anything in a very long time as most of things I want are streamable somewhere (and I don't care about file ownership), or set up for direct download on some forum somewhere.

There are other problems. I personally encountered this issue with Netflix: https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/community-netflix-and-hulu-remo...

torrents needs to be available over a browser interface to hide in the usual https traffic

See WebTorrent for this
