Mixers are getting outlawed, and it's not surprising because what they do is basically money laundering (in a sense that the procedure is literally built to hide the origins of money, both legit and not legit money). If someone is that much into privacy that doesn't care for Bitcoin's pseudonymity, then like others said, there are private coins for that. To me, transparency is a value, and while I believe in the value of privacy, it's not extremely important to me, so I've never felt like I needed to use mixers for anything.
