I got a warning from my uni for sharing copyrighted material. I used a torrent and don't really want more warnings because they suspend internet and eventually start fining you. Can I still stream shit?
Sure. With a torrent, the rights holders can easily get connected and see every IP, then track them down and send a notice to the owner. Also, you're giving the file to other people by seeding. With a stream, you're only watching and only the host site gets your IP, which they only would have to turn over for serious legal issues.
Yes, alternatively get a VPN or use private trackers
