Seriously, getting both profit for Canonical and easy shopping searches for the user (me) seems like a no-brainer to me. BUT, you have to adhere to data protection measures and give people the choice to use it or not. Thus, scrapping the whole lens completely is a bad idea.
I agree with MikhailValerie in comment #2, there simply has to be a disclosure and an opt-out opportunity as simple as a click on "No, thanks". While I don't have particular concerns about having the results in the main dash, a special shopping lens would in deed be nice, and from an GUI point of view easier to extend.
I might add, that an opt-in during the installation procedure or the first start of Unity would be more appropriate.
