I mean, do you pirate games? If you've never gone to a torrent site in your life it's not surprising, but FitGirl's repacks are so numerous that it's hard not to notice them if you do pirate.

I used to torrent frequently, but rarely software.
Since I graduated and started making adult money I haven't really at all. When I want to vote with my wallet, I just don't play it at all (usually these are live service games anyways).

Although I'm going to start torrenting music and video again on principle.
