That's a bit of a unfair comparison. In the context I was discussing I consider it a pragmatic take because our response to these issues needs to be understood across multiple domains including privacy. That's not to say that nothing should be done. Personally, I'd like to see measured legislation placing more security, privacy and liability onto manufacturers and providers.
