Recruiter hung up because I didn't give her my current salary.

Full disclaimer: it is not illegal to ask current salary where I live. But still owing to some info I have read here, I didnt wanna give away my current salary on the first screening call. I told the recruiter that I'm willing to talk more about it in the upcoming stages, she goes like "sorry I dont understand, you dont wanna tell your salary?",
Me: "yes I'm not comfortable at this stage but once we find the fit I'll be willing to speak more on compensation."
Her: "thank you for your time" hangs up
It was just rude and I felt like being buried alive. What do you guys think, should have I given it away on the screening call? For my future screenings, should I tell them because I know they are gonna ask.

Also understand her too. She figured you’re being difficult, there are a lot of candidates who are willing to show their dick pick to get a job, why wasted her time on you?
