If you think your ISP will hasle you, then yes, but it’s not mandatory. Do use a peer blocker to block common anti-torrent groups (RIAA, MPAA, FBI, etc) so they can’t log you seeding. Most torrent clients have Blocklist features built right into them now. You used to have to configure firmware level blockers like Protowall, but it’s super simple now. Some of the clients even have lists for you to choose from to populate the Blocklist. I recommend the Transmission client since it’s simple, while still being full-featured.

Thanks for sharing! Do you recommend a VPN?
