Are you downloading a copyrighted item, such as a song, a paper, or a movie?

Are you merely seeding movies for the other users and not downloading any item?

Are you using a VPN service to prevent getting caught?

Common conclusions

You can get in trouble and be sued. Downloading anything through a torrent platform is illegal and is subject not just to local sanctions but also to international sanctions as well.

You may still get in trouble and be sued. Governments do not distinguish between the users of the downloaded files and their enablers. The liability for both is on the same level.

You can still get in trouble and be sued. Privacy laws cannot protect you from getting sued because downloading a legal item illegally is in itself illegal.
