It‘s such an abhorrent marketing style of talking.

The way Dilbert put it was "Your call is important to us...please hold while we ignore it."

In this case they're actually being consistent. Your privacy is so important to us that we won't allow you to access our website and get tracked.

It is a very safe assumption to make that anything you see or hear in media means the exact opposite.

Coincidentally, the more I think about publishing to HN, the more nervous I get about my own data trail.

It is absolutely, in no way whatsoever, even close to a safe assumption.

It is, in fact, what people who are far, far gone into conspiracy theory madness think.

Again, this is not a reasonable thing to think. It is bordering on mental illness.
