I think that the part that should be mentioned about this scenario (whether you see it as utopia or distopia), is that the word "privacy" here also stands in for "liberty", "power", etc. The remarkable thing about the scenario depicted is not the wonders of the sharing economy, it's the fact that there is somehow a stable distribution of power that prevents all these own-nothings from being cattle. Not impossible, but that's the challenge.
