If the Cybersecurity and Privacy board was added any time in the last 3 months after the situation with julerz12, maybe a post there (such as one explaining and emphasizing that all users should be using Linux over Windows) may have prevented the OP from being hacked.
That's
very unlikely to happen. I wrote this years ago:
How to prevent this1.
Don't use Windows, but we both know you're not going to change that.
A more realistic suggestion would be to use a hardware wallet, but both julerz12 and Avirunes knew that already.
You've referred to one sentence in a thread that is out of site for a lot of the time. A detailed, well reasoned thread giving reason and proof as to why Windows is so dangerous paired with a detailed guide to switch to Linux might help to persuade those who are still using it to make the transition. A detailed thread would provide the ability to ask questions about making the change, inform people about
why Windows is so dangerous and push them much more toward making a change. If this request is never attended to, I'll go ahead and make the thread myself. Though I would be much more motivated to post it in a section where it belongs instead of a board that anyone who doesn't consider themselves a beginner to Bitcoin itself (a lot of bitcointalk members I am sure) would never read.
