and it applies to many such peer-to-peer file sharing protocols. It requires you to upload portions of material that you have downloaded.In other words, if you have 1/2 of a movie, you will be uploading that while your download of the other 1/2 continues.
When you are uploading material, your ip address is public. If, for example, the MPAA looks for uploaders for a movie and you have that movie, your IP address may show up to them as an uploader.
This opens you up to liability. You need to go to extraordinary lengths to be anonymous on a peer-to-peer network. Or in general, it is safer to stick to non-copyrighted material, and there is plenty of that.
