There are already several posts on this topic, but I wanted to have a more up to date answer. The secure wifi uses my personal school account to sign in so that might not be the best idea, however the guest wifi is open to everyone so that may be a better idea. I also know to use a VPN and bind my torrenting client to the VPN. Anything else I should know? Or is the entire idea dead in the water? I’ve pirated before but never with several thousand dollars on the line…
Get a seedbox. It’s 100% safe
Make sure you bind your qbittorrent to the vpn interface and check for any leaks. Test it by suddenly turning vpn off midway through to see if anything leaks.
With a known-safe linux iso, to be clear!
I’ve found the best way to check for leaks with torrenting is by using ipleak.net. They have a feature which will tell you the address it sees you torrenting from. Super handy.
