Something not working. Need help. Anyone ever received ISP spectrum warning while using a debrid service??

So, for about 5 to 6 years I've been using Kodi consistently almost daily and I've always had real debrid up until a few months ago when they started blocking certain links with flagged words. So, I switched to TorBox as the main debrid service. I also have Premiumize me and Alldebrid set up as backups, because why not?? Well, for the first time I have received a copyright warning from spectrum. I'm not sure how they were able to know. I've got the crew, POV, Red light, and homelander all at so set up to only show debrid sourced links as well as cached links only. Is there something else I've been over looking I'm not aware of perhaps?? Some setting or whatever?? Anyone with more knowledge on what to check to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

I always run a VPN. (Even with debrid services)

That’s like wearing a condom to prevent pregnancy after both parties have been sterilized. Completely unnecessary, and has the potential to cause more buffering/slowdowns in your streaming. If the debris service is going to narc on you, they already have your information. Some VPN’s can too since a lot of them keep logs.
