I'd like to think that by "jumping in" they mean that they change what kind of content the algorithms shows their users... however, I'd guess that no such self-regulation could ever suffice (esp. because it would always be less important than ad money in internal metrics).

Both are equally creepy - actually, doing it automatically is more creepy. At least a popup let's the user know they're being spied on.
