Why is it such big deal for some people?

Torrenting my linux ISOs and public domain contenty and it seems to work fine without port forwarding?

    Not everyone gets to decide the first level of networking they get unfortunately. Many ISP services block by default. Many folks are in shared networks.

    Many of these situations effectively block the performance of torrents.

    A lot of people torrent for piracy. No one is coming after you for torrenting Linux ISOs, so don’t worry about it.

        Jesus said: make sure you visit the fishmonger and baker after the meeting. I’m pretty sure they need compensation for all my copying.
