No, what I said doesn't preclude corporations abusing privacy.

They regularly try to do this, as with working from home monitoring, or insurance companies profiling individuals.

Governments can also be governments in name only, see corporatocracism.

Comparing that with what governments can do with data gathered about me, I know which ones I want to be protected from. Unfortunately they are the ones writing privacy laws and they leave huge loopholes for themselves.
