From dc6366a9bd370a0f772f376a2053c0ce48cb6607 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaron Raimist Date: Tue, 11 May 2021 08:03:23 -0500 Subject: Add config option to hide device names over federation (#9945) Now that cross signing exists there is much less of a need for other people to look at devices and verify them individually. This PR adds a config option to allow you to prevent device display names from being shared with other servers.
