It is the rhetorical "you".
Not "you, Cinisajoy".


As for torrent, it is a peer-to-peer file sharing protocol. Special software connects you to other people running the software, and allows you to download bits and pieces of a specified file from their computer.

Very efficient way of spreading large files, like gigabyte-sizes linux installers, the LibreOffice installer, oh, and Microsoft incorporated it into Windows 10 for faster Windows Updates.
Also a very good way to share pirated content in a difficult-to-track way.
