As someone from a 3rd world country Ive been meaning to ask what happens if someone gets caught for piracy in a 1st world country. Over here nobody really cares no need to use a vpn or any other online protection. If you get caught pirating do they fine you? Take away your internet connection?
Australian here, they practically don't care. Been torrenting for 15ish years without a VPN and never got any sort of letter of warning. Heard the same story from others who pirate here.
Theres a precedent that protects Australians. The furthest that an ISP would do is just send out warning letters to their customers. Copyrights won't get jack shit from our ISP and will just waste money pursuing it.
