The use of the word "paranoid" suggests that such a user's concerns
about sending ping notifications are delusional: that is, in
practice there is no gain in privacy from disabling the
notifications. Is this what you mean to imply?
Yes, it means to imply that.
If it is, I think it would be better if the text were more explicit.
I agree.
