After reading the FB blog post, it seems like this article is somewhat misleading. Yes, Facebook is removing "Sponsored Stories", but only because all ads will now include social context; in essence, all ads will become types of "Sponsored Stories."
It's only pro privacy because users will be able to opt out of allowing companies to use their likeness in ads. But really, what this really means is that all Facebook advertisements are going to be what "Sponsored Stories" were. No controversial features are being removed, they're being actively pushed by Facebook.
