I recall hearing that it was vaguely frowned upon with Tor back in the day for saturating the networ and it didn't seem like there was much reason to use it over basically any VPN, especially speed wise, assuming your motive was to avoid copyright notices.
That's because a copyright holder could easily host a copy of some pirate film on your new network, and then just see the destination of the data packets.
AFAIK, cops can't deal you actual drugs and then arrest you for it.
Sometimes its legal, depends where you are and how it was done.

Why not? This sounds like a misunderstanding of entrapment
"Entrapment" is actually quite narrow. IANAL, but my understanding is it requires showing that you wouldn't have done the illegal activity without the involvement of the police.
Harassing a person for months to buy weed qualifies; posing as a drug dealer and offering drugs to the people who pass by you, does not.
