I've been doing it for 20 years and have never been caught. I've never even heard of i2p until here just a couple of weeks ago. The fact that certain people are pushing it so hard and referring to standard methods in such a derogatory way makes me highly skeptical of trying it out.
Just because you haven't been caught doesn't mean https is suddenly a private way to pirate. It's really not that complicated.
And just because there is some new method available doesn't mean you're retaining your privacy there either. I have a VPN to hide my IP and as far as I'm concerned that's enough 'privacy' to avoid any issues.
What's the worst that'll happen, my ISP sends me a letter telling me to knock it off? You're acting like this is some sort of top secret black ops mission in need of complete secrecy.
