Feature
For privacy reasons, I believe it would be beneficial to have an option to hide whether a message has been forwarded. This could be implemented as a setting that applies to individual messages or to all messages, giving users greater control over their privacy.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the forwarded-message indicator and existing privacy settings, then clarify whether the option should apply per message, globally, or both. Done means an agreed privacy setting hides forwarding status on all supported platforms.
