tombraun[/url]":1brsns14]I've also been holding off updating the new FB app since they started doing all this. They are way too sneaky and invasive as is, whatever privacy-violating new 'features' they're trying to sneak onto my phone now, I don't want 'em.

I generally hold off on updating FB as long as humanly possible. I rarely appreciate the changes they so lovingly cram down my throat.

The title here seems a bit off, though, as many commenters have misunderstood. It's not that apps can't self-update, exactly - they just have to do it through the Play mechanism, and only when that's how they were installed in the first place, right?
