I honestly don’t believe I will have any legal trouble because I don’t do anything like cp or worse, I just pirate media I like, not even porn. But across users of communities, or on public trackers, is IP exposure something to be concerned about?

    @TheHooligan95@lemmy.dbzer0.com Lol. Torrenting is sharing. And for now you haven’t been visited, but I’m certain Hollywood will pay a visit to your local enforcer chief to explain to him the technicalities over fine wine & dinner.

    The risk is still there. Keep your share ratios to 3 so you don’t look like a big problem as @Melkath@kbin.social put it. And when you get a letter from somebody complaining, it’s time to start looking into a VPN.

    The second best thing to do is your own research into your country’s laws, and subscribing to e-mail alerts so you can know if the law will change. At least a google alert at a minimum.
