The universal translator in Star Trek didn't mine conversations in order to gather data that would later be used against everyone involved in any and every way that might generate more profit for the universal translator. The universal translator in Star Trek was designed to help people. Seamless, like all of facebook's AI, was designed to enrich facebook at the expense of people. Anything facebook provides that people find helpful is just the bait facebook uses to trick or entice people into giving up more data from their personal lives and into giving facebook more opportunities to use the data they have against them. This isn't a step closer Star Trek's universal translator. It is at best a step towards an evil mirror universe version of the universal translator designed by the Terran Empire.
