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.
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.
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.

Because if you live in oppressive countries without privacy laws, your ISP can/will also rat you out. Like the USA.
