Interesting theory, I’d never heard of it before. All of the sudden, “a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away”, actually seems plausible (although this theory looks like it came well after SW in 2014).

The actual paper about it: https://lweb.cfa.harvard.edu/~loeb/habitable.pdf

You could utilize Tor’s oniux and run your torrent client/regular browser through that. Depending on your base internet and area, though, connection speeds through it will vary wildly.

edit: I thought there was a Windows version, but I guess it’s only for Linux. Not sure what you’re running
