but noone will come after you if you (as a common citizen) download pirated movies or software.

As an EU 'common' citizen in Germany, I can assure you that you most certainly will be gone after for downloading any and all copyrighted material.

A single episode of a TV series once cost me 1500€ when I forgot to activate my VPN.
