Not just surveillance, but conducting research within corporate platforms. Therefore, they would have access to my data and a corporation's engine. If I think that google knows too much about me, do I get to opt-in whether that hyper-knowledge is shared to researchers (because I won't).

As other commenters have noted, then you should decline to opt-in to participating in research such as this.
The idea that this will benefit society seems naive to me. I feel like it will only serve to legitimize the practice by putting ostensibly trustworthy faces on the packaging.
