Sorry but you don't know a lot about private trackers.
>private trackers require signing up
Correct.
>most require some validation that you aren't a fed
There is not a single one who does this.
>some even require payment
Wrong. (There would be one chinese tracker, which could be an exception to that rule.)
>your IP wouldn't be whitelisted
Technically wrong.
>as your ISP for example can't snoop
Wrong. (And your ISP is not the problem.)
>also means feds and DMCA can't find it
Wrong (See Example 1)
>as it slows the whole swarm down
That isn't the reason.

Example 1:
Because you are so full of knowledge, this happened recently:
>Last summer (*summer 2023*), Lithuania amended its Code of Administrative Offenses,
>allowing media watchdog LRTK to fine pirates, without going to court.
>Over the past several months, dozens of fines were handed out. The targets
>were first-time offenders and all received the minimum fine of 140 euros.
>The early fines were almost exclusively issued to users
>of the private torrent tracker Linkomanija for sharing pirated films.
>According to LRTK’s latest information, it’s also keeping an eye
>on users of ‘private’ torrent tracker, Torrent.lt.

As the reader the assumption is: the users of these trackers were seeding from their home connection.
The thing is the change of law in this situation in Lithuania.
There was the situation with Danishbits.

In theory a closed swarm without an anti piracy agent is different than a public swarm.
Use your brain if you want to use private trackers.
