Isn’t that too risky though? That can be an evidence when argued in the court

If your coworkers are the level of douche bag that they might take you to court, then probably don't even talk about your favorite show with them

It’s not necessarily deliberate. Your coworkers could be distributing the copy to someone else and police’s gonna find out where it comes from

I almost envy the place where this is the kind of shit police are able to worry about.

I don’t know where you’re from but in my country, police are cyber-patrolling (lol) to hunt down ~~il~~legal contents.

Edit: I remember it’s a piracy community

I would think that cyber ops would be more concerned with fraud, underage sexual content, sexual predators... That kind of stuff.

Usually the MPAA sues people for distributing video content, and in many places, they're not super aggressive about it.

If they are going after sneaker net distribution, this is the most inefficient use of resources ever! As a taxpayer I would be outraged to hear about something like this. I can't imagine this being an issue outside of N. Korea

Unless the recipient literally rats you out, I don't think they'll even try to....

A lot of risk narcing on someone irl

Or from the other side, taking a random ass USB stick from someone you barely know? Nah. Who the hell knows what it could be infested with.
