I don't think privacy will ever become the norm. Just look at how normalized surveillance via credit card usage has become, simply because it's more convenient.
The important thing IMO is at least having the ability to have privacy if you want it, similar to being able to use cash in real life.
And buying BTC without KYC information is nice but doesn't really scale if you want to buy a lot. It will likely always be a side show.
