I believe there are free VPN services. Maybe Proton has a free version? I know they offer a basic free version for Vivaldi browser. Just make sure they provider doesn’t log traffic.

Now is black Friday, some VPN services are 75% off, that may be an option if you have at least something to spare. Sure, it’s money, but a fine for illegal downloading costs much more.

Otherwise public wifi spots but speeds are probably shit.

Another option is installing Tails on a bootsble USB stick and connect through tor. But then speeds are also shit.

I’d go for usenet. Only downloading, no uploading. Torrents are shit.
