MODERATORS
They track torrent file downloads so they can send threatening DMCA takedown letters to people that don't use VPNs to obfuscate their IPs. Even if you do use a VPN, they may not know who you are, but they can count the download.
Does pirating a show via streaming site circumvent this or does that get tracked too?
I don't think a third party can track your steaming without the allowance of the site you are using. With torrents, it's the nature of Peer to Peer transfers that your client or connecting to other clients to share the files, which is how they get your IP. With a streaming service, there is no open Peer to Peer download, so they could only track your streaming via cookies on the website or something like that. That is my understanding anyway.
