Goal

The goal here is for the moment to open a vpn connection and only route torrent traffic through

Once this has been achieved, I would also like to open perhaps a socks proxy on the pi and be able to route stuff from my laptop directly through the vpn, perhaps using some privoxy rules

Issues

the script sets up the routing tables so that all traffic is routed through the vpn. It seems to me that this is an overkill, why would I want to run my updates on the VPN?
