A bit ironic that the director of "Her" gave an invited talk at Google that I attended, but your interesting point was not addressed at all: what company would control "Her" data. The director gave a great narrative of how he films scenes (e.g., few crew on set during filming for a more intimate feeling).

Would have loved to see that talk--sounds interesting. Despite the fault of not hitting on that particular point, he nailed so much with the movie in terms of how things might work in the near future.
