I respectfully disagree with the authors of this paper. While context
is critical to privacy, and existing views of privacy will need to
evolve to address user-generated issues raised by SNSs, control will
remain a critical component of privacy. Its absence features
prominently in "push" vs. "pull" frameworks of disseminating personal
information, as reflected in the example provided.

"Bridging the Gap between Privacy and Design"
http://j.mp/NpB7Xm (SSRN)
"This article explores the gap between privacy and design in the
context of "lateral privacy"- privacy issues arising among users of a
service rather than from the service provider - on social networking
sites (SNSs) and other platforms by analyzing the privacy concerns
lodged against the introduction of Facebook's News Feed in 2006. Our
analysis reveals that the dominant theory of privacy put forth by
regulators, privacy as individual control, offers little insight into
the experiences of privacy violation claimed by users. More
importantly, we show that this theory is ill equipped to guide the
design of SNSs and platforms to avoid similar harms in the future."
