From someone who went from graduating late 2010s clicking on a download link on yt in 2018 to where I am now, can't say for everyone, but I know I used to be somewhat similar to the first one (minus any mentions on social media). Now I do either torrents or if I DDL, make sure to go to sites on the megathread to lessen the chances of accidentally getting a bad file/torrent.

We know how to torrent mate we aren't dumb
Not exactly, first of all, this is pretty divisive which I dislike, a lot of late Gen z can and has torrented and used ddl sites. It's early Gen z and Gen alpha that is hopeless.
Wait what sites are down? Just checked the ones I normally use and they're fine?
Also, just to say, I think there's this big learning curve with torrents cause people aren't straight forward with others ask for advice (told what not to do rather than what to do) and there's also just too much fear mongering about viruses.
