So are you talking about the original torrent (created by the seeder) or the torrent created locally (by the recipients)?

torrents aren't created locally. They are only created once. The creation of the .torrent file establishes the tracker, files, etc. At that point you can enable or disable DHT. If it is enabled, a peer can choose to turn it on or off. This is of little use if their are other peers that have it enabled.... since at this point essentially each peer becomes a tracker.

Some trackers use personalized torrents which are like passwords to use the their tracker. I think this may be what you are calling local torrents?

That is my understanding. I could be wrong.
