- It doesn’t make you anonymous. Torrent protocol wasn’t designed with anonymity in mind and there are a million ways you’re going to leak your actual IP address.
- Tor is a TCP only network.
- While this doesn’t give you the anonymity you wanted, it will hurt the network for other users.
Am I right to assume this is generally carried out by the users’ torrent client which is why we prefer UDP for torrenting?
Torrents are literally built around file hashes so yes
