From what I gather, in some jurisdictions downloading copyrighted material is legal (eg via HTTPS from a website), or at any rate not prosecuted, while uploading (offering to download) it (eg while downloading it via BitTorrent) is illegal (and prosecuted).

Not an expert on laws/jurisdictions; but data is collected, stored forever, and in some places is (legally) on sale. And laws get changed quickly based on lobbying.
