Basically what the title says. I don’t get how VPNs can keep me safe when I’m **hypothetically** torrenting. Can’t ISPs or the company owning the copyright track me down if I were to?

Your ISP only sees the IP that is connecting to the hypothetical (by the way torrenting itself isn’t illegal, it depends on the content) torrent. So they see the VPNs IP address and not your’s. Essentially what is happening is they’re sending it to your VPNs server who is then forwarding it to you. Since almost all good VPNs keep no logs, it’s (mostly) untraceable and not worth their time to pursue it anyway.
