If all you needed was a "highly scalable" service that "just" accepted data, why would you need a database? :p
Sarcasm aside, I'll assume you mean that we're actually storing those amorphous blobs of data. I think the "rant" is intended to remind people that a "schema" will exist from the moment you consume that data for any non-trivial purpose.
The only reason that would have been a waste of your time is if you agreed.

Example of such a service?
Dismissing something because you have not found a need for it in the past and don't currently have a need for it is a pretty poor excuse for that drivel I have just read.
Kudos for wasting 5 minutes of my life
