~~But it's VPN providers who rent the servers that have downloaded the torrents. So they can basically say it's not done by us, but the users of our service, and thus they don't bear any consequences? It seems like such a good business model.~~
VPN providers do not bear any responsibilities for providing services for piracy.
So technically if VPN providers do not keep logs, you are fine. But since it's impossible to know how VPN providers servers are implemented, still there are risks.
I mostly use public trackers. Maybe it's just my ISP doesn't care.
Plot twist: RIAA and MPAA own all the major VPN providers, and/or the data centers they rent from.

Correct. That's also why it's important to find providers thatchave passed many independant audits. Like ProtonVPN or Mulvad.
