Depending on the tracker once you notice a stolen API key it might already be too late. E.g. if they tank your ratio or break the rules in another way.
I could see the real source IPs for all other users in
lastlogs.Also, they mention in the slides that some seedbox providers allow users to find the IPs of other users connecting to the seedbox. Using a VPN for ssh might be advisable to protect your privacy from other users.
Otherwise your right as it won't impact your network at home.

Is there info not in a PDF?

Sadly there isn't. The talk wasn't recorded (to protect the privacy of the presenter I presume).

This makes me glad to no longer be running prowlarr on a seedbox (or anything else for that matter). Unless you're racing, or you've too slow of an upload, having a torrent client bound to a VPN (or gluetun/namespaces/...) is cheaper and seemingly more secure.
Do you have any resources for a similar setup?
No, but there's quite a bit of help for new users with docker, gluetun and qBittorrent out there. Just make sure your VPN supports port forwarding.
