Can I use The Pirate Bay to download torrents? What are the risks?

Torrent downloads themselves are legal in many countries. Only illegal downloads of copyrighted files are not allowed. There are hefty fines for such an offense! Make sure you know the local rules and laws about it before you open up piratebay-org and download torrents. It is better not to break the laws, you know. Also, when downloading torrents from The Pirate Bay directory, you might accidentally download files infected with viruses. To minimize risk, users of The Pirate Bay use the green skull icon to mark reliable giveaways.
