If you're worried about a privacy aspect, it's never recommended that you send private information, ie: credit card numbers, phone card numbers, social security/social insurance information, etc. via an unsecure access. IRC chat (whether via pm/query or in a channel/room) is classified as unsecure for this type of information.

Some people have got around this with writing/adding modules which emulate the discontinued function.
