To me machine learning isn't an issue in itself.
Proprietary machine learning is.
Either case their are to me nothing more than search engines.
There is a moral issue tho when it comes to data that has been taken, stolen, but that's an issue that the population worldwide has been plagued with since the smartphone was released, and even further before if you take into account PRISM in 1998~1999.
That aside, it is my opinion that non consensual scraping of information of anykind to create machine learning models is a detriment to the human species as people need to understand what is happening for their own personal development.
We as a species are not ready for any tool we do not morally understand.
This also applies to generic usage of computing imo.
