I'm not connecting it to an account where all the different activity is correlated with each other.
Ok I get your point. But I haven’t been in any tracker that ask for any private information. You just need a burner email for all you torrent related activity and that’s it.
In a public tracker your IP is also tracked, and while is not tied to an email, you’re open to honeypot attacks (that’s how law firms try to fine you in Germany). This way they find out exactly what you tried to download, timestamped.
As these assholes always go for the low hanging fruit, you’re mostly safe in private trackers.
