You are just one of the unlucky 2% who do get caught. (In fact 2% is probably a kind of high figure).

It depends where you like I guess. In America the have the equivalent of a corporate Gestapo in the form of the RIAA and MPAA - and they have taken some quite high profile action against people.

Where I live in the UK the government have pledged only to pursue large scale pirates, who might be a part of organized crime and who may funnel their money into terrorism. But they have said they will leave the ordinary downloader alone.

So for now at least, I doubt I have much to worry about.
