DOWNLOADING ANIME IS ILLEGAL?

Well, technically, torrents are not illegal. It’s if you bypass serial codes or distribute them other others. But it’s probably best if this is locked.

But... I wants to watch One Piece

Youtube. Or google.

Actually, downloading any licensed anime is illegal, through file sharing or otherwise. That’s why some of the more focused torrent sites remove any anime that has been licensed for distribution outside of japan.

Uh. Tell me, where exactly does the data come from when you download a torrent?

From other people. Most like to argue that downloading a torrent is no different than letting somebody borrow a DVD. But it’s still illegal downloading.

If I remember correctly. And this was taken up the court chain too. It is legal to download torrents as no single file comes from any one person. As in, you download a file that does nothing from person A and then download another file to complete the set from person B. Through technicalities. You never downloaded a copyrighted material from a source. Just took bits from different places then had a program archive it all accordingly. And as such, breaks no laws.

But feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.
