I’ve been around for a while and this is the first time I’m seeing something like this. I’m wondering if I picked up something nasty or if this is something that other people are seeing.

You get notified and can opt-out of the update in the Shutdown dialog, at least with Gnome.
That’s good. It’s still annoying, but as more people used to this sort of behavior come onboard Linux, behaviors like this are going to inevitably creep in. And, options are good; I object only to opt-out.
It doesn’t affect me, anyway, but I’m still going to have a cow the day my dad calls and tells me he said “yes” to an upgrade dialog and now his computer won’t work, and I have to waste my time dealing with this bullshit at an inconvenient time.
