I’m considering joining my first private tracker. It turns out that most of them need you to pass an interview connected through your home IP. I understand this is a reasonable way to filter scammers and duplicate accounts. Still, to those who did it, how do you feel knowing your main IP is stored and associated to your torrenting history?

Private trackers really aren’t masters of op sec. They thrive through security through obscurity which the worst kind of “security”. And generally even fail at that (PTP, BTN, RED, OPS are so widely known)
That said I use them and I also don’t use a VPN so I just take that risk. It’s up to you
IP2 definitely sounds intriguing as truly (or close to) anonymous peer to peer
Idk, i never gave aa fuck.
