I dont use read reciepts on WhatsApp. I keep it off. So I cannot see if a person has read my message or the sender of a message cannot see Ihave read their message. Status update views are also hidden.
Other messaging apps also have this feature. I personally don’t like it. Do you?
I just leave it on because I have no issues with it, if I am ghosting someone I just don’t open that chat. The online stuff however I do turn off.
