Why exactly is that not compatible with privacy? I am doing quite well without
Facebook accout. "Networked anything" does not have to mean "...and no control
over your data".
You're basically doing both a straw-man (i.e. making it seem as if privacy
supporters want to live in a world without the Internet), and a false
dichotomy (i.e. making it seem as if you can't have privacy and Internet). Not
cool.
And, more importantly, not true.
