Because they’re needlessly elitist and self-congratulating. The whole point of piracy is to spread stuff, not gatekeep it. Enforce quality control, vet those who can upload, put checks and limits, maybe even put rules against hit and runs, but do not close the access to downloading stuff to anyone.
I hate private trackers and I think they should be a thing of the past
What’s the evidence that they managed that because they were closed?
Keeping torrents alive and allowing free downloads aren’t necessarily related
