Now, if also want the download to be hidden locally, then you need to use a private window to access the page and download the files.

In the previous thread, I did not fully explain what I mean and I have the impression that I was not fully understood.
I'll try to explain it another way.

I want to download a file from the website in the browser, but I do not want the owner to know my IP, because it is my brother and his personal files.

Here is my question: If I run Opera VPN and then download this file, will my IP address be hidden during the download and my brother won't be able to know it's me?

I meant a couple of links.

Ach, sorry

For example:
https://www.moddb.com/mods/worms-forts-mega-pack/downloads/worms-forts-multiplayer-map-pack-v23
or launcher from
https://www.minecraft.net/pl-pl/about-minecraft

The amount of data used is not increasing, I don't know why.
