Legal repercussions of seeding?

I'd say it's pretty safe to seed/leech here.
Most Japanese studios just don't care about what happens with anime out of Japan... for now.

I roughly recall a thread from a user getting sued for downloading. I don't even know if I recall it correctly or what type of content it was.

Queen's Blade.

Honestly, you should be aware of the ups and downs of torrenting.
One big thing that people overlook... your IP address is given to everyone on the same torrent.
Like blubart said, if you're paranoid, just don't torrent. IMHO you're making too big of a deal out of it. Unless you live in a place where Internet traffic is heavily monitored and the police will arrest you for saying the same thing someone else said. In that case you might want to consider moving to another country.

The issue with Queen's Blade was someone was caught downloading it offsite. I am yet to hear of anyone on site being caught otherwise the torrent would have been deleted by now.
Generally BBT is safe for downloading and seeding. Torrents that may cause legal problems are usually removed and therefore its generally a lot safer though not 100%.

That wasn't the case I was thinking of, Bay isn't a serious threat last I heard.
