Redpill me on why a private tracker with my real IP exposed is better than a public tracker with a VPN
It's not. Private trackers are a meme and /g/ falls hook line and sinker for of because it makes them feel special when they are pirating.

and vpns don't do this?
>here goyim, route all your illegal traffic through our servers, we don't keep logs, we promise!

Let me guess, you use your time, bandwidth, and electricity to seed for free?

figured about as much

1.PUBLIC trackers OR DHT OR PEX OR LDL WILL expose your IP to ANYONE who finds the torrent online, meaning ANYONE or EVERYONE can see that you are a pirating/illegal downloading piece of seamy crap and can EASILY get EVIDENCE that you pirated the contents of the torrent you are downloading.
2.PRIVATE trackers (have TORRENTS WITH DHT, PEX, LDL CLOSED) have a key that is required so users can connect to the tracker and authenticate in order to get the PEERS/other IPs, MEANING ONLY registered users will see your IP and not EVERYONE.
However copyright orgs might join the private tracker as users and monitor the swarm/IPs BUT if the users start reporting and the staff is SMART they won't be doing it for long!

1. OP clearly states using a VPN.
2.
>implying the staff aren't reporting to the FBI directly
>implying the users (mostly teenagers and millennials) actually care enough to report

It has happened before and it will happen again.
something about socially inept gadflies under the radar

people like you is why we can't have nice things - properly seeded public torrents are impossible because of fags in wyoming with dialup and 2 hours of electricity a day

Not on autistic meme trackers like what.cd
>>57458884
never said 'rent a seedbox'
>>57458761
>time
how does seeding take time? you just leave your client open and it seeds dude
>>57458923
>just leave your client open
You've clearly never joined a private tracker and submitted content.
>>57458008
tl;dr stop living in cuckland and piracy is not going to be a problem for you anymore
>>57458008
Private trackers have a way better selection, usually the first to get new torrents, actually have seeders, and have the fastest speeds.
My private tracker allows VPNs aswell so I just use my VPS.

What did you mean by this?
