Given that it's Hetzner, there's not much you can do besides telling them "oops sorry didn't know this was illegal" and proceed using a VPN on your seedbox, go private tracker or just use a different hoster. Hetzner isn't a big fan of torrenting since they have the (german) feds in their neck.
If you want to support the creator, spread the word. Paying for things will generally just fill the purses of some rich ass media company execs who sit around all day masturbating on their third yacht.
By spreading the word, the creator is suddenly known for "having created this media that everyone knows", landing them better deals with media corporations.
This concept applies to pretty much all media in all forms.
Technically they somehow exploded to 5800 monthly listeners, but Valkyrik could use some more love. Last time I checked all their songs were at >1000 plays, even though, again, that somehow changed recently.
Yeah, I feel you, but given that we can't change society overnight, this ultimately becomes a circumstance we have to deal with, unfortunately :/
I just don't care about any of that at all. I have around 100TB of seeding accumulated over the years, no VPN, zero security measures, nothing ever happened at all.
