They can see how many downloads and seeds but not from a single place.
Everyone in USA uses a VPN to torrent unless they are just asking to get a letter sent and service disconnected.
So they can tell people accessed it but not how many people of that group would have been able to legally pay for the service anyway. (If I’m not mistaken a lot of those streaming services are US only and at least if they aren’t they offer completely different libraries based off what country you’re in)
Someone in Africa or Brazil who had no way to pay for it anyway are also included in those metrics making them kind of pointless if you’re an american company selling american media to Americans only.
Although I’m sure they justeasure it as “missed sales” anyway even though that isn’t the truth. They don’t offer their services to all 200+ countries and a lot of piracy isn’t just US based.
