I never did it. How can I do it? And where I need to go for it?

There are two schools of thought, and one of them is insanely wrong.

The current preferred method (by youngins) for pirating is by using a VPN provider to "hide" your torrent traffic, which is generally valid, but it's not a silver bullet and it's a wrong way to think.

The other is to use a seedbox, which is a remote server hosted in a country that doesn't recognize piracy as a crime to begin with...

The choice is clear. Especially when you consider to get a good private VPN you'll have to pay $5-10/mo. You may as well pay $5-10/mo to commit a crime where no one thinks its a crime, then you never have to worry about it. Using a VPN you can still get caught, it's just exceptionally rare because conditions have to line up perfectly. But what if your VPN is down, and you accidentally begin a download? You willing to get a $100,000 fine for that?

Just use a damn seedbox.
