Privacy.com is not about hiding your identity from authorities.

It's mostly about hiding the fact that the same person, you, are paying to merchant A and merchant B. It allows you to easily have a card per merchant, and lock it to the merchant so that when its number is stolen, it can't be used anywhere else.

The domain name is a bit lofty, yes.
