Is there any chance I’ll be caught downloading via DDL? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

New user, sorry for mistakes.

To put it simply, my college doesn’t block any websites for free speech and all that, and they don’t block piracy websites, such as AnimeKaizoku. But on the odd chance I’ll get a DMCA or a notice, the college will receive it as they manage the internet, and they’ll probably shit on me, someone before me (I think) got their WiFi revoked for a bit, which isn’t ideal for me.

So is there any chance of being DMCA’d downloading from websites like AnimeKaizoku?

And if there is a chance is there any way to avoid it?

Thanks!

TL;DR College internet doesn’t block DDL piracy websites, but if I get DMCA’d or get some kind of notice I’ll probably be shit on.

Because the studio would have to set up a honey pot site, host the files and get you to click on it. It's so much easier to just sit in the swarm and spam letters to everyone else.
