> By redefining privacy as "we don't know you" instead of "we keep your stuff secure" their doing a clausewitz style offensive.

You mean they know the difference between privacy and security?

I'm actually not sure I see the difference here when your information and access to you are the only things a website can secure at all. If you're selling my information, or access to me, that's by definition terrible privacy.

Granted this isn't the definition of "privacy" that corporations will use, but that's hardly an accident.
