  • macOS 10.14.1

How's the behavior changed?

At first, Privacy Mode will be opt-in (and turned “off” by default).

From Introducing: Privacy Mode (Medium).

They only issue is the last statement, recommending to sign out instead of enabling Privacy Mode. Which is a step above, IMO, to privacy mode.
