The telnet protocol (and many telnet clients) includes a method to tell the serv
er whether or not to "echo" back what it receives from the client.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc857
As you can see from that specification, the default is not to echo:
3. Default
WON'T ECHO
DON'T ECHO
No echoing is done over the TELNET connection.
Maybe that's helpful to you.
