How is the Piracy community adapting to port forwarding becoming a rarer premium feature, and most users on public trackers do not have it? Is the bitorrent protocol in need of update?

I’ve been happily using Windscribe for a while now, they have port forwarding with a dedicated IP. Averaging out the separate charges, it’s about $4 USD/month for a custom plan (1 location + unlimited data) + dedicated IP. Technically their Pro tier includes ephemeral port forwarding, but I don’t like how it works.
