It's milquetoast fence-sitting time!
So from reading this little controversy, I'd say although it is understandable to discourage players from using torrents in order to better protect themselves, and can be commended for trying to do so, punishing players for using torrents feels very unjust. Especially so when the game involved is a parody. I'd hearken doing this to, say, someone reporting & getting someone else arrested for smoking marijuana in a place where it's not legal because the substance can be potentially dangerous (clearly not a one-on-one comparison). You can discourage that someone from smoking a potentially dangerous substance all you want, but if they want to take the risk, I believe the morally right thing to do is let them be. In this case, some will know about the use of vpns, and others will screw themselves over whether that be from not using a vpn or no anti-virus software thus learning something new. In which case you can vocally discourage this in the comments, possibly on the main page or title screen of the game in order to prevent this from happening often (and angering some players).
That being said, I wish nothing, but the best for this game and those who like playing it.
