      thx for clearing that up! in Europe at least, consumer protection laws cover downloads (“you’re a moron who doesn’t know what you’re actually downloading and whether it is legal”), but seeding == distributing, which is a punishable offence

    • It doesn’t provide legal safety here in the states, you’ll wanna use some kind of anonymizing service.

      If, however, you plan to do lots of streaming of your torrents, it is absolutely the best way to go. I am familiar with RealDebrid, which is a similar service. Its good stuff, probably pay with cash-by-mail or cryptocurrency though.
