the tool itself doesn’t change anything from the ISP’s perspective. It just fetches metadata and opens magnet links. What matters is what you download, where you live, and how your torrent client behaves, not whether you clicked the magnet in a browser or a terminal.

Yes, it’s just a plain CLI access to YTS torrents

That depends entirely on what you download, the country you are in and your ISP.

Standard precautions apply when using the internet while under authoritarian jurisdictions.
