What? No, you will not. You could get fined for seeding some popular stuff, but even then no one is knocking on your door, it'll probably come in the form of a letter, and even then it's not a guarantee.

I lived in Germany. At least back then it was definitely a letter. They were not very good at it, though, and I received one for torrenting large open source software.
I wonder if people could form a nonprofit that starts torrenting public domain media or open source software as a honeypot to find these firms and bury them in legal procedures. I'd gladly donate to such a nonprofit.
Do these letters have teeth or just trying to scare you into a settlement for lawsuit that would never come?
