On my network, running my machines, these privacy mechanisms really are bad. Having them doesn't give me any privacy (the entire system is my private system to begin with -- who am I being private from?).

The only privacy they are affording is specifically to entities that I don't want operating on my machines to begin with, who are mostly interested in violating my privacy.

So this privacy mechanism, in this use case, really is bad because it reduces my privacy.
