Hm. I think, you are confusing general privacy with confidentiality. Observing who I am talking to definitely falls into the privacy domain.

Eg. you are talking to an HIV medical specialist. This inherently has privacy implications, if observable. Likewise, you wouldn't say DNS has no privacy implications.

Anonymity rather means, you don't/can't know who exactly you are talking to.
