I hope to die before that logic extends to hiding what channel you are tuned into on a TV or radio for "privacy reasons". Infrastructure is infrastructure, it's not like every packet you send has a social security number or bank account routing number in it. Ridiculous.
In the off-the-air and analog cable model that is still the case, and IMHO should be when it comes to broadcast media delivered over cable and IP.
Do you really want your cable company selling lists of "Fox News Viewers" and "MSNBC Viewers" to anyone willing to pay for that data? Don't forget that politicians conveniently exempted themselves from TCPA and anti-spam laws.
How about content providers selling lists of which households watch which adult PPV channels?
