Openbazaar security [X-post /r/openbazaar]

Is there a good tutorial or otherwise on the internet describing the security measures needed to ensure a safe dark market experience? I'm talking about a prospective buyer not a seller.

I'm familiar with PGP and VPNS but I am wondering how to integrate them with the features within the OB client & server.

Maybe if someone can point out the obvious risks that are inherent in openbazaar as opposed to a normal central server type DNM. Thanks!

You mean other then the developer being so hostile to the idea of his project being used for a DNM that he intentional broke it so it isn't possible?

Vanilla openbazaar won't work the way a DNM needs it to work by design.

Edit: hey down voters, openbazaar exposes everyone's IP to everyone else by design. Down voting me doesn't change that reality. Openbazaar is not the solution DNMs is looking for.
