All the FB and Google data collection is voluntary...
No it isn't. There isn't any 'informed' consent - so it is not voluntary.
you chose to use their service.
not to be spied - see the difference? Also, as I mentioned, google, facebook and the like are nothing but branches of the american fascist state. So there's very little 'voluntarism' about their 'services' and operations. So again, I assume your link was provided as an example of the most crass apology of americunt fascism by fake libertarians.

I suppose you are linking that as an examploe of retarded, corrupt, shameless defense of corporatism by poster children for fake libertarianism like the moses institute.
" we're led to believe that it is problematic that Google tracks our web searches and Facebook knows our friends and beliefs ("because autonomous weapons"?). While I agree that it is ugly"
ugly?
"they operate under the harshest regulation there is: the market."
What. Market.
"if the State would "regulate" how Google and FB use AI to sift through the data and feed people what they want to hear, what makes anyone think this applies also to the DOD or NSA and their data, which are *not* collected from consumers voluntarily "
voluntarily?
and has the genius who wrote that piece of corporatist garbage missed the point that google and facebook ARE the NSA and DoD?
Oh wait, that's exactly what being a fake libertarian is all about isn't it? Shamelessly defend corporations, that is, an arm of the state, while ranting about how bad the state is.
ps: image recognition is not 'intelligence'.
