Not sure If I want to continue uploading music to a public tracker.. not only can it be used by absolutely anyone, but the number of snatch and runners and just phenomenal, it's enough to put anyone off.

The purpose of BOiNK.cd is more of a middle finger to the parties involved in the shutdown of OiNK.cd. TPB and everyone else knows that any public tracker can't compete with a good private tracker, so saying that BiONK won't be any good is pointless and irrelevant.

the riaa can catch you easy if its public or private, true private offers slightly more protection, but all the riaa have to do is become a member of the tracker and watch whats going on from the inside. even if its invite only you can bet your ass they will find a member willing to send them an invite in exchange for $$$.
it is more likely that the riaa would go after either the bigger private trackers or public trackers. why waste time and cash trying to get an invite to a private tracker so you can catch 1000 members when you could watch the publics and catch millions

It would cost them a lot more money if they went after public trackers. The court would be outrageous, they would also need lawyers to defend their side. All in all i think they wouldn't go prosecuting the public just because their ip address was from the pool of say 5,000 ip addresses on one torrent.
If they did catch you in the act wouldn't they have to find evidence on your computer or in your possession to even bring your case to the US courts.

This just goes to show you how you can not stop the torrents communities growing.
