Well afaik seeding on public torrents is just about the only way, where you would get in trouble for pirating.
Just don't do that, use a private tracker and use Tor for small stuff like ebooks.

This is not much of a problem, because you are seeding to "friends" making the whole thing non commercial and a private affair in some legislatures.
Not sure if the laws have changed but what.cd used to have a certain number of users which was capped by the number of friends some judge thought to be reasonable.
If i recall correctly that whas around 200k meaning that you could run a private tracker and in case of a bust claim to know everyone.
Back in the day i had a what.cd account and when they got busted (took them many years) nothing happened to the users. I think they shredded the servers before the cops could seize them.
