Chances of actually getting picked up on pirating are absolutely tiny, they only really care about capturing uploaders.
In 15 years of pirating without a VPN in the UK I’ve only ever received a single letter, which was just a half arsed scare tactic.
The constant reminders about the absolute need for a VPN to avoid getting caught is just VPN provider propaganda imo. It’s ideal to have it, but in reality you’ll be fine.
In the past I actually have had a few slip ups to which nothing has happened, not even a letter. Even as a stupid kid when I first found torrenting I of course wasn’t using a VPN. Even with that in mind, I wouldn’t trust sailing with nothing. Sailing in the nude feels wrong.
