I'm rather curious to see how the EU's privacy laws are going to handle this.

I don't see how that's related at all. Having deterministic builds only matters if you're building a binary from source, if you're working with some distributed binary you'll be applying the patch to identical binaries anyway. And if a new binary is distributed, that's going to be because something in the source was changed; deterministic builds will still give you a different binary if the source changes.

Binary patching is still common, both for getting around DRM and for software updates.
