Does this mean that every user account has their own data volume or that every user account has their home folder encrypted on a per-file basis? Or neither?

What is the privacy implications of two users (both with administrator accounts) sharing an Apple Silicon Mac?

One data volume per OS install.

Both users have access to all the data in that case. It got carried over from iOS which didn't have multi-user support.

(and this is by-design, protection granularity is the volume)
