Continuing the discussion from 2.9.0.beta12: Security fix, bug fixes and more:
Thanks. Could you provide more information about that feature ?
Itās the new default hide profile and presence admin setting that sets the āHide my public profile and presence featuresā on a userās Profile/Interface page to be default enabled (thus hiding their profile and presence by default)
It was proposed in this feature topic - Opt-in to show user profile instead of opt-out

Could you elaborate a bit on the meaning of āpublicā in this context?
Who can see the user profile if the user has not opted in?
Is there a way to show profiles only for members of shared groups or more restrictively, for shared groups that require approval?
I have explained my reasons for requests like this here:
Iām afraid it doesnāt change the behaviour of the setting in any way, only what is marked as the default.
If a user has āHide my public profile and presence featuresā enabled it will hide their profile and āx is typingā indicator from anon and all non-staff users.
There are a couple of connected admin settings that also have an effect - allow users to hide profile and hide user profiles from public (which disables user information features for anon), but neither would limit avatar visibility.
