Putting people down for sharing their opinion doesn't encourage the kind of feedback that software companies need to improve their software. As a software developer, I'd ask you to consider the needs of companies like Apple writing software. It's far more useful to welcome all feedback, even if it sounds negative or like complaining. There is gold in these complaints, and some of us want to hear it. I'd like to ask you to open your mind to the possibility.
I'm going to quote AmishCakes's repose from three years ago as it's still relevant to your concern:
This forum is a user to user technical support forum. The OP was told that it is not possible to turn off this feature, which then sent him into his little snit about losing his freedom. THAT was wrong on his part and against the terms of the forum. That's not what this forum is for. If he wants to complain to Apple about it this is not the place; he should use this link: http://www.apple.com/feedback
Apple is not reading here for feedback. If you wish them to have yours, use the link.
If this is some sort of privacy concern, turn off iMessage. I'm curious though, do you take steps to prevent the people around you from seeing you type on the phone? If not, why not? Why is that not a privacy concern but it is if someone with whom your actively communicating knows?
Best of luck.
