No separate LAN play --- everything has to be through battle.net, which you could use provided you have internet (and I gather there is regional segregation, so you might have issues trying to play with people in different countries, though I'm not sure).
Unfortunately, anti-piracy concerns have led to a lot of the multi-player stuff getting more restricted in its options, not less.
Edir: p.s. and for the privacy-paranoid, maybe it's also to ensure that Bliz/Activision can expand their player databases.
