I think there's lot less potential abuse, if you control your tracker and the peers. If I remember correctly, you usually have to seed till a specific ratio is reached. I doubt that any copyright-infringment-abuse-company tries to get acces to those trackers, if they have to upload stuff at first.
Copyright alliances try to get access to private trackers, but only the database that tracks everything to arrest big uploaders. They don't need anything else. Private trackers, as the name implies, track everything, a treasure trove of incriminating evidence.
