Saying “The Net interprets privacy as damage and routes around it” is more meaningful to me than the original statement because I am forced to make choices on privacy on a regular basis. I see the Net as a screwdriver prying the lid off my mostly sealed life and forcing me to interact with it. Sometimes it’s a lot of fun to assimilate with borg, but I worry about the hidden price tag!
One could view the "Net" mostly as an organism that wants to grow. In this case saying privacy does make a lot of sense.
One could view the "Net" mostly as people: as it's hardware/software commanded by people who are sometimes commanded by companies. So depending on your point of view the Net can mean a lot of things, hence you could replace “censorship” with what has meaning for different types of people. I find going down this route to be insightful or just silly fun because you can start thinking in so many different ways. Correctly or not...
