For me it is that I think the general public has no choice in the matter now, the banks and governments do. That is the difference I see.

You have the choice of downloading your account history and copy pasting it here for us to see. Can you think of a reason why you wouldn't do that?

Also does Bitcoin give you a "choice" in exposing your wallet transactions? How is Bitcoin's lack of privacy choice "a choice", and your choice whether to keep your bank account history private or not, "not a choice".

It's say crypto gives you less choice. And even worse, the way crypto chose, to expose transactions, makes actually the regular folks more vulnerable.
