QBitTorrent has been a favorite of mine for a while now too. I used to use μTorrent exclusively, but it has become bloated with useless features and adware. So I switched.
I personally haven't found a Torrent client that appeals to me like QBitTorrent does and μTorrent use to.
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." ― C.S.

The protocol itself is neutral. Just depends on what you use it for. I use mine for anything interesting I might find on Archive.org.
