Websites or software or anything really that would interest “normies”
For me it’s uBlock Origin, Newpipe and showing them how to pirate in general.

you dont actually need a VPN, ive been torrenting and pirating stuff for like 15 years and nothing has ever happened
Please stop telling people this. Depending on where you are, pirating without a vpn can have actual consequences.
Most of the ways in which you get caught pirating come from torrenting on very public trackers, using your naked internet connection. There are people who just sit on these torrents and log the IPs of those seeding and downloading, do a lookup on them and send canned letters to the ISP with the IP address in them. I received a letter back in the day for exactly this reason. If you’re on a private tracker, yeah, it could be fine. Downloading things directly from a site is fine if the site has SSL set up, since all someone could see from that traffic is you going to xyz.com and not xyz.com/movies/shreck2.mp4
Same but it depends where you are in the world
You have had the luck to not need a VPN. Plenty of people don’t. Plenty of people need a VPN. It’s generally a better idea to use a good VPN (Mullvad, or paid Proton if you absolutely need port forwarding) when torrenting.
