Why there is no encryption if I download files from cdimage.debian.org ?



When I visit cdimage.debian.org I see that connection IS encrypted. But if I, for example, try to download a torrent file and go to
to cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.5.0/i386/bt-cd/, then out of blue connection becomes unprotected. I know that there are GPG signatures, but 
I think that it's a bit reckless anyway, what if potential attacker will notice what particular file I downloaded? For example, he saw that it was 
 cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.5.0/amd64/bt-cd/debian-8.5.0-amd64-kde-CD-1.iso.torrent, so he will know that my computer is a 64-bit PC and
it uses KDE + the latest 64-bit Debian Stable.
