I THINK the idea is you don't need a VPN with a private tracker. Other then that, the selection is usually better, and the seeders have faster uploads.
You should always use a VPN, doesn’t matter if the tracker is public or private. And yes, better selection, seeding requirements, and better speeds.
VPN provider is just as likely to rat as the private tracker, if it comes down to it. Only VPN I’d truly trust is Njalla. Anyway I’m interested in why a VPN is recommended for a private tracker.
Because if you live in oppressive countries without privacy laws, your ISP can/will also rat you out. Like the USA.
On a private tracker my ISP knows the domain name of my tracker, and, the IP addresses of the peers I downloaded from. They do not know any of the content, unless they join the site AND seed the content in question.
All of what this person said!
I still use public trackers though, mainly because I want my seeds to actually benefit others, not fill up some arbitrary private tracker counter.
