      No, not really. First of all, you can disable uploads. Second, you can use a seed box hosted in a country which doesn’t prosecute uploaders. So, you can be clean for all legal intents and purposes.

      Kind of.

      You can set your upload limit to 0 and not seed anything while still downloading.

      Downloading is still 100% illegal in the US, though. However it’s up to the copyright holders to pursue criminal penalties, which I’m surprised isn’t happening with facebook.

      Everyone who has evidence that facebook illegally downloaded their copyrighted material has a case to bring before a court.
