Web of trust for warez; seems like a good idea.

Ofc. 

Using OrFox as an example, a recently depreciated version had auto-update grayed out.

The current version resolved this but provides 'Enabled' and 'Wi-Fi only' as the two options, no way to opt-out.

In the world of usable security, this doesn't seem like an oversight to users and can degrade trust.
