Right, and it's in the name, after all: Transport Layer Security. Security is not quite the same as privacy. TLS was never meant as a way of guaranteeing privacy in a broad sense as far as I know, and this is the first time I'm seeing it described as such. Now, one may argue that security is a needed component of privacy, but it's certainly not enough by itself.
