I went looking for people to disable it on IRC this
evening (only
waited that long because I was AFK a lot recently) and the person that
actually looked into it (happened to be a global sysop) so far was not
comfortable doing this because there are "lots of local admins there".
Yes because that's a restriction for GS. Steward or global editinterface
are what you need.
I'm not sure if there's a policy on whether or
not to wait for locals
when reverting a privacy policy violation (if you would have waited
for less urgent changes) but just in case I commented in a few local
places anyway.

With the current policy there is no real need to wait but
asking/notifying locally first is the right thing to do. :)
btw, another issue to address is the footer's "Privacy policy" link on
that site leads to a local redlink.
I suggest to file a bug for this. [[MediaWiki:Privacypage]] needs to be
overwritten by the WikimediaMessages extension and/or all local messages
cleaned up.
