Hey guys, my name is Shelby and I moved to Berlin a year ago. I'm new to this forum so please tell me if this topic is okay to post here.
Recently I used Torrents to get new series of a TV show I like. I always used torrents back in my home country and it was fine, I never got fines or so.
I never knew that torrenting is a serious issue here, but then I got a fine for doing it. I got so scared because the fine was big, of course I shared the cost with my roommate, who was also torrenting and didn't know it will cause us such problems. My friends recommended getting Surfshark. It is a VPN that somehow changes my IP address and makes my anonymous online and I can't be tracked for torrenting. My friends said that they always torrent with a VPN and never get fines.
I just wanted to ask maybe someone had a similar experience and could assure that a VPN can help or maybe have some other solutions?. I known that I should stop torrenting, but I don't know where to get movies and TV series from except from torrent sites.
Thank you in advance!
