Who on earth is actually not an advocate for privacy?

> I want things to sense when I fall and call for help for me.

There's no need to sacrifice privacy to achieve this. [0]

> I want my routers to suggest that I'd get better coverage by moving it.

This is really more an issue of proprietary software than a privacy concern, no?

> Yes there is privacy concerns and they need to be addressed, but don't lose the good with it.

Communications are by default expected to be private. Highly public and non-private communications are advertised as such since the use case is so specific and often times, nuanced. In almost all circumstances there is hardly any "good," at all without best-practices privacy protections included.
