It depends on country, state, etc. laws. It also depends on what you're downlding & whether it is copyright material. This topic has been discussed many, many times. If you search the topic using the search button above you'll get some hints.

If you're in a country which forbids it legally, then the authorities may try to make examples out of individuals. They try to target those who downld & share very large quantities of copyright material.
