I disagree with the metaphor of the landlord reading your mail: As slightly worrisome as it is, having a person and an algorithm read your mail is not comparable. Of course, the risk is that the results of the analysis is leaked outside the algorithm.
I have taken a conscious decision that I don't care about this risk. I'm putting my money (yes, it's a bet) on Google being able to profit better from advertising to me without violating my privacy. It's a "life's too short" trade-off.
