If you torrent through Tor, you give up your anonymity more or less (packets will contain your real ip address, I don't think it's easily possible to torify bittorrent, even if the Tor network could take it).2. If you use a link to a torrent from a darknet forum on the clearnet, then because you're a moderator on SR, you're also screwed. LE won't bother with a buyer or two, but a member of SR's Staff? Yeah, they'll make you out to be Al Capone of the darknet and parade you through the streets.The issue is that tracking who downloads specific torrents is not remotely difficult. ISPs may even cache them, and more importantly, ISPs already use DPI or Deep Packet Inspection for torrents for various reasons. i.e. torrents are very identifiable and so is everybody who downloads them unless they use fairly sophisticated tricks like anonymously getting a 3rd party to download the torrent remotely and then obtaining it via FTP over Tor.. It's just that it's not evidence enough to prove copyright infringement.So, if I were a LE agent, I would make a request that DPI be performed on this specific torrent file for the UK ISPs on this date. Then I would have the 20 - 50 people who downloaded it today, and then it's just a matter of picking up a couple of more clues like timing data and they could be 99% certain who Limetless is. It's not evidence, it's intelligence gathering. Then you'd be under surveillance and then it's all over. tldr; Do not download torrent files from links posted on this forum. It's completely different from downloading a file over FTP through the Tor network.Paranoid Pine
