Apologies if this question is adequately answered elsewhere; I couldn't find a clear answer.
I'm trialling BolehVPN (which is working well) on a Win7 laptop with a wifi connection to a router in a shared house. I'm not the ISP account holder - that's a man called 'Dude B', who isn't using a VPN or any means of IP concealment.
Let's say, hypothetically, some scoundrel used utorrent on my machine to download/upload files.
My computer's IP is hidden. BUT - does this matter? Since all the data would be going through Dude B's router, would any torrent activity still show up as originating from his unconcealed IP address, making him vulnerable to copyright-infringement accusations?
Because then there'd be little point in me using a VPN on my machine, if all the traffic'd point directly and obviously to Dude B, who couldn't tell a torrent from a tornado.
Please assume I'm only semi-savvy (hey, I got this far) if you're kind enough to answer!
