Netflix is already collecting a profile of every user based on what he chooses to watch. If users only watches violent series and movies, they will only get more violence in their recommendations.
Black Mirror isn't giving Netflix anything that they don't already have, but I agree that we should be worried with the overall scenario. The problem is that we aren't.
What happened with Facebook should have changed the way in which we see those big corporations that regularly register personal and behavioural data, but it didn't. Most still use Facebook, and they don't care.
It'll take much more for us to really worry.

But the step by step, sometimes in weird places, specific contextual questions is a more direct and personal survey, not so influenced by who are with you, or recomendations/trends on social networks. Anyway, is not just social media or video sites, some games may be (or will be) collecting that kind of direct information too.
