No, it's totally not.  You can definitely build systems that allow
people to have meaningful levels of privacy toward anyone not in the
set of people with whom they choose to share data, while still letting
them reasonably efficiently speak with those they want to speak with.
 I don't see why there's anything inherently contradictory in this.
