it still comes down to, the owner of the website should be responsible and TURN IN ALL the people who upload/post illegal content - and NOT make their sites so that the "leecher(s) who don't have a fair use right to the content" also don't have ACCESS to that content or have upload rights.
regardless of our spirited debates over time - I agree with some of what you have to say - but until you come up with some way of stopping it from being the 'perfect crime' I shall continue to ask you .... what the hell is to be done when almost everyone is "innocent" - and the guilty can't be touched because they are protected by 'privacy'
someone has to be guilty - and there has to be enforcable methodologies for detection and prosecution.
so lay out a couple ideas on how you think that that could be accomplished.

again if that was the way the law worked then the vcr would have been illegal until they found a way to prevent people from daisy chaining them together
Thank God that was not how it works or the biggest money making opp for this industry would not have happened.
That being said i have already pointed out 43 times that setting up a private tracker does exactly that it issolates all the innocent on your system and the guilty on the public system. You might not be able to convict them for copyright infringement, but you can sue them for breach of contract. And since you are fully providing for the fair use right to use swarm as a backup/timeshifting/recovery device, there is no fair use to hide behind for that breach.
if you don't want to setup what amounts to a completely free solution (subsidized by advertising just like the public trackers) then you should be looking to monetize the distribution instead of trying to prevent it (like what happened with the vcr).
