Maybe in the future people will realize that it's a mistake to market your company as being unequivocally on the side of privacy. Nothing was ever private at the point where cloud companies are forced to comply with the government to some extent or face extinction through legal pressure.
It isn't like the ultimate goal of protecting children isn't worth fighting for, and the ICMEC considers half the countries in the world having no laws against CSAM to be "simply unacceptable." But companies that insist that everything they host can remain private to everyone are lying to their users, and will have to align their marketing claims with the reality of the law, or this kind of backlash will result.
But in general, there are a lot of other descriptors besides "private" that are nothing more than baseless Corporate Memphis copy.
