I definitely understand the reasoning behind automatic updates, especially when it comes to keeping up with security patches.
Some rare times, some of us need finer grained control over these things, though, and it probably shouldn't be called "disable" if the OS will re-enable it at will, without notification.
It's one thing to protect the user from themselves, and another thing altogether to lie to them. It's (generally) the latter that will get people upset.
