I’m a bit surprised to see so many torrent posts. Are most people still using Torrents? Are most piracy users aware of programs like sonarr or radarr?

Probably a dumb noob question, but shouldn’t one use a VPN for privacy when torrenting? Wouldn’t that add additional cost?
Live in a third world country and all software is free software. No strings attached
my brother 👏 our authorities are too busy using pirated software to crack down on it. can’t imagine some people live in countries where anyone gives half a shit about piracy.
Some countries just don’t care (even if they have laws on piracy), no vpn needed.
You can also torrent on i2p for added slowness and privacy. Usually fast enough.
I use a free VPN (Windscribe’s free 15 GB) from time to time if I’m torrenting something very new. Otherwise I don’t use one.
There are a few free ones that some like to use. ProtonVPN is an example.I am currently using Nord(paid). However I cant atest to the security of any of them. I have had no issues with Nord.
You can get reputable VPNs for very cheap. Windscribe provides unlimited bandwidth for a minimum of $3 a month and Mullvad is $5 a month.
Usenet typically requires more expensive fees to join.
