1. It doesn’t make you anonymous. Torrent protocol wasn’t designed with anonymity in mind and there are a million ways you’re going to leak your actual IP address.
  2. Tor is a TCP only network.
  3. While this doesn’t give you the anonymity you wanted, it will hurt the network for other users.

    Canada? Idk the actual legality but I’ve been torrenting bare for nearly two decades and have only received two meaningless warnings from my ISP in that time.

        I’m not in a small town but no where near Vancouver. VPN is probably still good practice.
