like, if I send the QR code to someone I want to talk to via email, anyone intercepting this message will at the very least know my SimpleX address; same thing if I send it via messenger.

edit: let's assume we don't have an established and trusted channel. furthermore, they're not expecting this info.

Send the address and delete it after you've verified that the recipient is in your simplex contacts. You can verify via security code. You'll know when they use the link. Delete the address afterwards.
