Well, it depends what type of privacy you need, PIA will certainly shield you from DMCA lurkers. You can pay with a temporary or disposable credit card. See this article: http://www.greycoder.com/vanilla-visa-an-inexpensive-anonymous-credit-card/

Any VPN service that ask for money will get some sort of financial information from you unless accepting bitcoins. Privacy from paid services is not very robust.

I don’t know to what extend PIA can screen you from the “Copyright head hunters”

Thanks for the update. We will give it a try.

HMA is not particularly good choice for torrenting. They keep logs of user activity. I would recommend Private Internet Access for $40 per year. However, if you are doing all your torrent in Russia, perhaps HMA would be sufficient.

THAT is why you should use a VPN from any country ot affiliated with the USA.
It is far too easy to force companies in the USA and it’s allies to spit up info on it’s users or add tracking software to your connection and account.

Also, under US Federal law, the copyright head hunters do not need a warrant to spy on you nor get you into trouble,

The service was recently hacked, and is apparently keeps logs, and may also be spamming it’s users.

Private Internet Access works fine for me — I get my full speed while torrenting via a public tracker. See this article were I compare the speeds of various VPNs: http://www.greycoder.com/the-fastest-vpn-services-for-2013/

THE SPEEDS TO uTorrent and Azueus ARE TERRIBLE , even thought I CONNECT with the listed countries that provide the Proxies with their given Ports.
NOT sure what Trackers you connect to ,mine are all Private Trackers, some Public, I tested with, both have amazingly SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW speeds!!
