I honestly don’t believe I will have any legal trouble because I don’t do anything like cp or worse, I just pirate media I like, not even porn. But across users of communities, or on public trackers, is IP exposure something to be concerned about?

    The general philosophy: they can’t prosecute the entire populous.

    If everyone is pirating, they focus on the ones who pirate the worst shit or the ones who pirate the most shit for profit.

    In a sea of pirates, you don’t get tagged.

    If people stop pirating, the bar for too extreme or too much lowers.

    They do pirate the most extreme and the most prolific pirates, however.

    A story as old as time.

      Wait, so the cops pirate the pirates?

      So the pirated pirates, pirate the pirates stuff the pirates pirated from other pirates who could possibly be pirated pirates posing as pirates?
