While this thread has your attention I would like to take the time to tell you all to encrypt PMs that have sensitive info such as shipping addresses, currency exchanges PMs that have bank account numbers in them, passwords and so on. It will protect you if the forum is hacked again and PMs are leaked, or more likely if the recipient's bitcointalk account is hacked by a malicious actor who dumps the PMs somewhere.

I obviously don't need merit but this is how you guys do it:

To be fair, in this quoted post you don't explain how to do it, you just demonstrate that you know how to do it.

I have recently been trying to write a modern guide to using PGP since the linked guide in OP is Windows-specific, but I've been quite busy last week.
