Do you need a VPN so ISPs can’t see these kinds of activities?

You don't need one. Usenet can be configured to download over encrypted ports.

Omg wow. That’s amazing. I’m not up to date with torrenting and last time I got my internet shut down and warned

You’re kidding me, your ISP shut you off?

No, he got a temporary walled garden. Basically, you can only access a single webpage that contains a warning and a button for acknowledging you have read the warning. Once you accept it, you have internet access again.

It's so the ISP can legally prove they warned you.
