I don't think this is true. On camera in the "real world"?

No privacy.

Don't run your own monero node (which apparently few people want to do) you lose privacy big time.

Don't hide your location through a cell-phone (from NOT using a Sim, or at least not using KYC-data or VPN and even then the Sim thing is big) and no-amount of on-chain-Monero privacy will help you. Cell phones are HUGE surveillance platforms.

The fact is that people are interested in 'not' getting poorer... if folks were really that interested in privacy they wouldn't be using cell phones at all and obviously they are everywhere.

I just completely disagree with the monero privacy-by-default mantra.
