I think that "privacy" is being used as a trojan-horse in this regard. Technical-minded people are especially reactionary to any criticism of HTTPs and the other related things that will inevitably arise from giving entities effectively an end-to-end untamperable and non-user-controlled pipe straight into your TV/Monitor from their server.
In an alternate universe, "ability to control/mitm data going through your network" could have been argued to be a fundamental right such as "right to repair" and "right to be forgotten". Where is the EFF on this? Where is Stallman when you need him again? Why is Mozilla not fighting this instead of pushing DoH?! EU regulators? Anyone?
