As someone with 22 years in equity trading technology Real-time market data is NOT privileged information.
This is not "material non-public information" because every professional trader has this access.
Having access to see client orders prior to them reaching a public exchange IS material non-public and this will put you in the "you need to have all your trades reviewed" category.
If you want further proof, most retail client trading systems now offer "real-time" market data, at least for the US markets.
