Getting Siri data and recording phone calls are totally different things. Siri using your data to improve itself isn't a big deal, in my opinion. That's because you're talking directly to a service, you shouldn't expect it to be totally private.

Phone calls are different, they're meant to be private.

I see your distinction. I'm not talking about Siri improving itself I'm talking about Apple suddenly now being the primary recipient of your search requests and mining the voice data. You could say your emails should be just as private as your phone calls. I see this as just Googles version of the same strategy. Not saying I agree with it though.
