I think it's the kind of thing that could work rather well on some sites and terribly on others. For example, a site about a wacky, humourous game/TV show/film/whatever could integrate something like this into the 'universe' of the work, and have it read out by one of the characters. The site for the next Donkey Kong Country game could have its privacy policy written like Cranky Kong's cynical comments in the instruction manual, a site for Banjo-Kazooie or Yooka-Laylee could have the snarky side kick reading out the privacy policy, and I think it'd be the right tone for my Wario series fan site/forum's privacy policy too.
At the same time though, this would horribly inappropriate/annoying for a 'serious' company like a bank or financial institution, and go down poorly for someone everyone hates like Google or Facebook.
It's all about context really. Sometimes something like this may work well, sometimes it wouldn't. What'd work for Rare wouldn't work for Comcast and vice versa.
