It's not wierd at all because you assume the same mental framework. What's been obvious for EU politics for years now is that they do not assume government/security privacy violations as same kind of violation as private person/company violating privacy.

Remember that GDPR has carveouts for governement as well.

Everyone speaks like "privacy" has a common, shared meaning across all people and it couldn't be farther from truth. And we need to keep that in mind - for governments, online posters and even organizations like Signal.
