The technology is legal; the uses to which it is put may or may not be.
For example, it's perfectly legal to use BitTorrent to upload or download the latest version of Debian, since Debian's license allows (in fact, practically demands) it to be freely distributed.
It's not legal to use BitTorrent to upload or download files without the permission of the copyright holder, though.
