Perhaps from the device but not from the modern world. So why worry just
 about the device?

My Google AI says: "Information Privacy: The right to control how personal
 data (like medical records, financial details, and browsing habits) is
 collected, stored, and shared by organizations or governments."

Do you control your online medical records? Or online tax records? Where
 they are stored? Who gets to see them? And even if you owned no computing
 devices you likely will still have little online privacy according to that
 definition.

Not all. This Chromebook I'm posting with doesn't work without an account.

Only people who misuse the definition of privacy would say what you said.
 The last time you called in for a doctors appointment, the secretary while
 looking at your (stored online) account may have been chuckling at your
 ongoing constipation problem...  8-O

Agreed. People who live in a cave can have privacy. People in the modern
 online world don't.

Phone?? I thought our OT subject was online privacy. And even if you have no
 phone, by definition you still have no online privacy, Google or no Google.
 So Google it to see if I'm not right...  ;)
