Use a VPN that is not US based (as far as ownership/control) and does not keep logs.
This way, if they are subpoenaed, they have nothing to give.

PPTP, L2TP are not secure.
OpenVPN is a great VPN software. On Linux, there is also WireGuard, which is supposedly more secure. You only need the client.
Higher encryption for the actual transmission is most important. A good provider supports at least 128 bit encryption for the data between your computer and their server.
Mullvad, AirVPN are 2 I've used. Both have their own clients that are easy to install.
You will want software that cuts the connection (stopping Bittorrent & other programs) if VPN connection drops.
IPleak.net is run by AirVPN, tests different data including connection leaks due to WebRTC. You can also use DNSleaktest.com
For non-Torrent Web anonymity, there are more things to consider which is beyond the scope of this post.
Deluge is a good software for torrenting (on Win7 & Linux).
ThePirateBay (not sure what domain extension) is a good source for torrents also.
