“Data privacy” is about agreeing limits when the canonical location of your data is a place you don’t own. i.e., when the default is public.

Privacy (“human privacy”) is about making the canonical location of information about your self a place that you own and control.
-
“Data privacy” isn’t privacy at all as the prerequisite for privacy is that *you* make the decision about what you share/keep to yourself.
-
…You cannot make that decision if your data originates on / is stored on / is analysed by tech you do not own and control yourself.
-
So those who harp on about “data privacy” take “public as a default” as a given and attempt to decorate that to make it more palatable.
-
Those who care about privacy strive to make technology *private by default*. So *you* decide when and if you want to share something.

@aral It seems almost everything's full of bullshit these days, but still a useful term. "human privacy"=personal control of our own data. -
@lyrradarryl “Privacy” means “human privacy”. Sad we even have to spell it out because those working to erode it are trying to redefine it.
