I do agree it would be lonely. Fortunately we don't need to worry about that happening as neither the Manufacturers or Verizon would allow it to any time soon. The only reason Apple is like that is Verizon was trying to get the contract to be able to sell the iPhone and that was written in as part of Apples normal contract and they would not budge on it.

So, there's no solution? No way to back out the KitKat update?

This is why I am considering going back to a cheap flip phone.  Smart phones are designed to make money off you and your personal information.  They aren't designed with your concerns in mind.

Ever notice that although you get to approve app updates, you can't DENY them?  If you don't approve them you will be nagged continually until you do.  You can't say "NO! I don't want this update, ever!"

And for Android, if you install certain apps, you can never uninstall them.  Oh, you can back out certain updates to them, but again you will be nagged until you reinstall them.

Learning to hate google as much as any of the others.
