You not convinced there’s the potential for liability for every single one of those instances and their admins?

Not a good analogy, you are still depriving them of a seed for a period of time. Something more accurate would be “Excuse me sir, may I take pictures of your successful tomato grow op so I can do the same thing at home in my own grow to feed my family.”
Sorry if this is off-topic but one thing to keep in mind when obtaining torrents through any of the debrid type services is that they do not seed back. I’ve tested both alldebrid and real-debrid in the past year or so and they immediately hop off the swarm as soon as they are done downloading.
I understand that they let you avoid getting copyright notices and have used them in the past for that reason. An alternative that would be much better for the community and still allow you to avoid copyright notices would be using a VPN that allows port forwarding with a torrent client like qbittorrent that can be configured to only communicate through the VPN connection. I recommend seeding back for as long as you can but 24 hours or until you hit a 1.0 ratio isn’t horrible for keeping public torrents alive.
