There have been significant changes recently in Australia in regards to ISP data retention laws (data must keep for 2 years). In addition In a landmark judgment delivered on last week, Justice Nye Perram ruled in favour of Dallas Buyers Club LLC's "preliminary discovery" application requesting that the ISPs disclose the identities of people it alleges shared the movie online.

To protect my identity I want to use freenas running transmission protected by a VPN. I have research various threads in how to set this up and being a novice sounds a bit overwhelming.

As I do not want to stuff around with my real freenas is it possible to use freenas in a virtual box to learn the set-up?
Thanks

Yes, I use freenas in a VM to test out all kinds of setups. I highly suggest it. Make a 8gb drive for the os, have 6-8gb of memory and a single 20-50gb disk for your pool. This should allow for jails and enough storage for testing.
