You do need a VPN to mask your IP. Especially if you're going to be using public trackers. Otherwise you'll get copyright notices and you're ISP could terminate your service.

Depends on where you live. At least in the UK, ISPs can kick and scream but generally won't terminate you.

Get a seedbox and download the files over sftp from it. All your ISP will see is a large transfer, no file names or knowledge of content.
