For the record, the whirpool-client code does have Tor identity management. The code I showed belongs to the new soroban implementation and I did not review the old client (very badly structured code). However neither the android app nor sparrow manage identities.

The android app because it is computationally expensive, hence one of the reasons why wasabi never had a phone client and sparrow because it was not implemented correctly.

I don't know what percentage of people were using said desktop client, but evidently everyone who has used the android client or sparrow has not been protected.
It wasn't until March 2024 that the Samourai guys addressed the change of identities in Tor to make the coordinator blind, and only applied on soroban which never went live and also on the desktop client.

And it's one of the worst structured code I've ever seen and people trusted these guys with their privacy....
