Just had a quick glimpse over that, and most of them aren't dedicated 0day trackers.

0day trackers attract attention from everybody (feds, users, sceners etc). The last thing you want is having all your site news on the public.

This thread is ironic isn't it? :P

Feds don't pay attention to p2p otherwise alot of sites wouldn't be around by now.
And yeah its kind of a retarded move for closed torrent sites to keep twitter accounts.

Wow: http://www.govtech.com/gt/articles/706943

Feds have been involved in trying to bring down child xxx on p2p networks, so anything is possible what they do along the way.

Child pornography is a whooole different issue... it can't even be compared to the likes of pirating a few wares. Its a far touchier subject.

What rart said.
You just can't compare the energy the feds put on the scene with that of P2P.
