Perhaps because the vast majority of points in the article are obviously false or exaggerated out of context? Needless to say Matrix servers and clients don't send any data (private or otherwise) by default to central servers. The only central services we have are the identity lookup service (i.e. map phone number & email to a matrix ID), which is strictly opt-in and various anonymous stats reporting (which is also strictly opt-in).
