How do I got about using Torrents safely again when Corporate money-starved old geezers have their hands on nearly everything we do?
Im paranoid of every torrent website I find, don't want to get myself in jail or paying a fine or whatever.
What do?

Don't torrent

then how else will I get my programs illicitly?

Normal non torrent download links uploaded on pages like media fire, uploaded and mega.
general files is a good page to search stuff ...

get a job and buy it you fucking bum, if you're too stupid/paranoid to use a vpn or direct downloads then you don't need whatever programs you want.

honestly does this ever happen? everyone i know in LA torrents shit every day and is too retarded and technologically illiterate to even know what a VPN is and no one has ever gotten a fine or went to jail over it. only time i've heard of that is on 4chan

Some guy at my school got busted. And since a torrent is legally dozens of uploads he was convicted to pay 40 000 € in retribution. He was 16 or 17 at the time. I assume that thing cost him Uni and I assume he still pays it off.

If you don't tell us which country and what type of connection (private, public, work, school) and amount of intended P2P activity, we can't help you.

don't recall hearing of it before either, but it seems the risks are there nowadays. I would just rather be safe than sorry.

poortugal, private connection, and I'm guessing you're asking how often I intend to do it. Every now and then, am currently in need of an adobe program for a project, other than that it's usually music, tv shows, games...

Just stream shit... Problem solved.
