If you’re only talking about the download process, and you are downloading at home, then a trustworthy VPN is the (only?) way to go. I’d look into Mullvad or IVPN.
If you are also talking about other processes surrounding downloading, such as registration, creating accounts, communicating with people over the Internet, use fake names ( https://www.scifiideas.com/cyberpunk-name-generator/ ), e-mail aliases ( https://simplelogin.io/ ) and respectable DNS providers ( https://quad9.net/ ).
Mullvad is unfortunately run by fascists so a bad choice if you’re not one.
I think I had heard about that, but what did they do again?
co-founder donated to the sewedsish party Örebro Party
dont know if mulllvad is now bad or not
I switched away from Mullvad because of that. I waited a bit for their response before deciding, but I found their eventual response pretty wishy-washy. Their counter-argument was:
It was a private donation from Daniel the individual. Mullvad or its parent and sister companies did not endorse and were not involved in it.
But his personal money still comes from the company, so if I continued to send Mullvad money I’d know it was still indirectly going to the Örebro party, whose leader called immigrants “parasites”, which (as an immigrant myself, albeit not to Sweden) is not acceptable to me.
which vpn do u use now?
I switched over to IVPN, they seem pretty right-on and no scandals that I know of so far.
i heard its good for privacy but is it for piracy too?
thanks also hoe do u open the files without them having any chance of interent conention and cant see other files?

You need a VPN that you trust. They act as a middle man between you and the Internet.
It depends on the country. Some countries don’t give a shit about piracy.
Canada is like that. IIRC the maximum fine you can get for piracy is $5,000, meaning it’s pretty much not worth it for any company to come after you. If you live in Canada and use a VPN you’re pretty much golden, but I also know people here who don’t even bother. They get a letter once in a while from their ISP and they just ignore it and nothing ever happens. One of my friends called their ISP to complain and told them to stop sending letters, and they said sorry they have to but if you seed a little bit less then they won’t have to send them lol.
As others said get a VPN (depending on where in the world you are this might not be that important if you’re country doesn’t care about western copyright mafia much) and then check out:
