You might want to unplug your router then. A conceit of being connected to a network is you're connected to the network. If you can see other nodes they can see you.

Is this an accepted usage of the word `conceit`? I love the construction, and it does feel like it belongs, but I'm not finding this usage. https://www.wordnik.com/words/conceit has a bunch of meanings collected from various sources.
I wonder if you meant `concession`.
Also, it's a false dichotomy. One can use VPN or proxies, to limit exposure or to encapsulate it. Of course, you can't get perfect location privacy.
