@dassauerkraut @GrungeQueef @BleachChan they don't track piracy, it's the companies who own what you're pirating who track it and then tell your ISP to shut down your internet otherwise they will sue. If you're pirating random old ass games and shit nobody will care, it's mostly things like newer movies. If you use a VPN, they don't have your real IP and the VPN providers don't seem to be liable for it in the same way the ISPs are, though I'm not sure how that works exactly.
I'm aware. I've gotten a hard ISP block from doom download before.
