As for Belgium, I only know cases where uploaders have been brought to
court. But in France, the cases against downloaders have already started
last winter. And the accusation was based on the fact that a file
downloaded from an illegal source was a counterfeit(contrefaçon?).

Interesting,
this brings up a new question, since the home-user creates the counterfeit himself for his own private purpose.

Is one allowed to counterfeit a product,
to create a look-alike, for his own personal purposes (no distribution, no commercialism)?

For example create a look-alike Armani suite and to wear it yourself?
Or make a food-product at home that tastes exactly as a product of a certain brand.
