I know it’s against the law, but I found conflicting information regarding how likely it is to be enforced.
So assuming you don’t have a massive quantity of data upload, is torrenting some pirated (copyrighted) content relatively safe or not?
Have you ever gotten in trouble for this (or someone you know)?
No, but I still don’t advise doing anything illegal. People on online forums act like Piracy is a “cool edgy” crime to partake in, but at the same time you don’t really want to get in legal trouble later down the road for seeding some stupid TV show. If you need to pirate stuff and want to avoid legal trouble just get yourself an Usenet subscription.
