Not illegal to use torrenting software. Useful for getting stuff available on torrents, like the Humble Indie Bundle torrent to reduce the lag on their website.

That's what SOPA wants you to think.

[Killian Jones 2,655]

It's funny how assuming someone has torrenting software automatically equates to pirate. I would never confirm or deny any of the sorts though.

[Grendo 174]

Tell that to the political officials.

They will assume whatever gets us into trouble.

also its very useful for linux distro downloads(they are legally free btw) , espcially when one has a new release since so many people are downloading it, the direct download becomes super slow.
