I raw dog my torrents with no VPN
Can someone tell me the actual risks involved? I always thought it was so you didn't get your ISP up your ass and shut you off, my power company is my ISP and they don't give a shit
What really am I risking here?
Edit: US
Depends where you live. In some countries nothing. In other countries fines. In some death penalty.
Me, Germany, 20 years of no VPN = nothing ever happend Friend of me, also germany, downloads Minecraft once without VPN = 800€ cease and desist letter So yeah. Pretty much a gamble.
One of three things, one your ISP doesn't give a shit and nothing happens. Two, you get nasty-grams telling you to cease or have your service cut, three your information gets forwarded to the copyright owners company and you possibly are fined or worse brought in by a lawsuit.
Yep, yep and yep. The nasty-grams are typically referred to as “love letters”.
Depends on where you are. Depending on country it can range from no one giving a shit, over to getting letters from your ISP, over to getting smaller fines, up to getting railed for your life.
