Yeah, I think that basic distinction applies in some universal way.
Whether or not privacy is proper in a particular situation, or whether censorship is, that's another matter. But it's frustrating to see them confounded in this way.
Crippling the user's device (which is ultimately an affront to freedom of general purpose computing) in order to censor data which is plainly available through sensory input is not, in any sense, "privacy".
Censorship is telling everyone else they have to avert their eyes as you walk past.
