There is nothing wrong with being similar and trademark law is only applicable when the defendant's "mark" can be mistaken for the plaintiffs and have a negative effect on their business. Since the privacy site is nothing to do with computer games, doesn't sell computer games and doesn't relate to the gaming industry in anyway, there can be no accusation of "damage".

I am not even remotely worried that there might be a chance of a trademark dispute, I am confident the logo is fine from a legal standpoint. My spy is also hand drawn by me so it is not a derivative works. Plus their Spy is clearly wearing shades, mine has evil red eyes.
