npub1q5l4y898qvhzghc665jrqj6kcw4p89gha56azkt7j0jm9299wzcqt7ywp3 (npub1q5l…ywp3) npub1suam9f3gwqeqxstd3rlccpekpfuxrgawc8est0jtkhpzm63zz5nqxtszrk (npub1sua…szrk) The "abuse" of other people having your phone number is reduced to near zero with usernames -- having a phone number in the first place is going to give you way more abuse of it. As for tracking, I'd bet there's a way to validate the source code to make sure it's doing exactly what it says it's doing.

In the end, no matter how you slice it, every good system requires some amount of trust. I'd argue Session is not a good system as there's zero abuse prevention and it's also pretty well tied to the blockchain (even though your messages and whatnot are off the record).
