So why are my German relatives super-scared of pirating because of the government finding out, and get me to torrent all their shit for them and mail it to them on cheap hardrives?
Correction: It's not the government, it's private law firms doing this. Your IP is public when you torrent, they just have bots monitoring the most active trackers and try to extort money from the people they catch.
Piracy is not privacy
