The risks of downloading music at home with wifi - eviltoast

Like the stupid newbie goober I am, I forgot the first step to downloading music: do it in a public setting with a public wifi. Ended up downloading it all at home off of our private wifi. Did use a VPN but forgot to switch it from my home country. Kind of wondering how easy it is to trace me and persecute me for this. I am not the one handling the ordeal with the wifi, that would be my lovely mother.

Cheers y’all!

    Okay, maybe I read you wrong. I agree that nobody will try to acquire details through mullvad to prosecute this.

    I read the comment like downloading music is so irrelevant, you could skip the VPN, which I would disagree with.

    I once downloaded an album I had already pre-ordered, but didn’t want to wait, no VPN. Got a letter from a media lawyer within the month. Felt pretty stupid.
