Think about how much information regular people give away freely on facebook, youtube, twitch, google searches, texting and sexting, instagram, pinterest, online shopping, etc. Companies like Google literally don't have to spy on anyone - We give everything to them freely. We want to believe it's a conspiracy against us because it makes it feel better about our own self-sabotage. There's things you could do (like deleting your social media accounts), but in our world today you have to shop online and use search engines. You're going to get data-mined. Best you can hope for is to be a good person, then they can only data-mine good things.
