Depends on the country. In the U.S., instead of chasing users themselves, they have leveraged the Internet providers to act as enforcers. If you torrent something they first send you notice of violation from your Internet provider.
If you continue to torrent, they can
cancel your service or the copyright holder can start legal action.
Honestly, I would never torrent anything anymore. There are great webpages that offer streaming for no cost.
A direct download/streaming site can be shut down at any time. Torrents are resistant to censorship, as they are decentralized. Just grab a good VPN or a seedbox and you can torrent as much as you want.
