I wonder why somebody thought it was a good idea to make cell phones nark by default. read receipts was a dumb idea crafted by some middle manager from hell.

another option is to block unknown contacts from sending messages. IOS, the android/google messages and most messaging apps have a way to filter messages and just block anyone not in your contact list.

    iMessage and android RCS clients do it, but normal sms on android does not. Then basically every other chat app has it too.

  You get read receipt For iMessage, not for regular SMS.
