I hear if you torrent you get a nastygram from your ISP. Meanwhile, I hear if you find a site that offers to stream it for free, nothing bad happens. Also I hear that Yandex gives better results for such sites than Google or DDG/Bing.

I hear rumors being eastern european negates the nastygram, but that's just a rumour.

Ukrainian here, pretty eastern European. ISP doesn't make enough money to care.

Lithuanian ISPs also really don't care the worst that happened is the government shutdown a film site but it is back online.

If you're in Canada those nastygrams are merely scare tactics, generally.

Depends what you torrent. Torrenting exposes your IP to all the other peers.
