I’m in Australia, and my ISP is known not to comply with requests for user data from media companies. However, laws can change. I also have a static IP address that I self-host some services on. I’d prefer not to advertise to peers the IP I’m hosting those on.

Jeeze, who leaves their torrent client open to the internet. That feels like begging to be charged with copyright infringement.
