 signal-cli was primarily developed to be used on servers to notify admins of important events.
 For this use-case, it has a dbus and a JSON-RPC interface, that can be used to send messages from other programs.
 
+Originally the Signal protocol only allowed sending messages to other phone numbers.
+Now with the introduction of phone number privacy, the phone number of a recipient is not always known.
+Only the recipient's ServiceId, ACI/PNI (a special UUID) is known.
+This special identifier can be used instead of the phone number in signal-cli's interface.
+
 For some functionality the Signal protocol requires that all messages have been received from the server.
 The `receive` command should be regularly executed.
 In daemon mode messages are by default continuously received.
