It's not voluntary. It's so pervasive across every major service. Google ties your search identity to all their products. videos you watch, mail you send, etc. The phone carriers install software that logs your keystrokes. Apple tracks your location via GPS to gather data for as of yet unveiled service. Don't even get me started on Facebook.
The point is, technology services are so pervasive, if you really want to opt out and secure your privacy and data, you basically have to become Amish.
