Vita auto update?

[soad26]

I have a question. Does the system update itself automatically when it is connected to the internet? My vita's wifi is always turned on. Im worried to lose my expliot if an update comes in. If the answer is yes, can i turn it off?

there would be a confirmation screen, the US has laws for user rights.

Just like Verizon I'm sure Sony has a clause like this:

(Quoted from Verizon Wireless Customer Agreement, this is just an example of what Sony could have in place):

My Wireless Device
Your wireless device must comply with Federal Communications Commission regulations, be certified for use on our network, and be compatible with your Service. Please be aware that we may change your wireless device's software, applications or programming remotely, without notice. This could affect your stored data, or how you've programmed or use your wireless device. By activating Service that uses a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card, you agree we own the intellectual property and software in the SIM card, that we may change the software or other data in the SIM card remotely and without notice, and we may utilize any capacity in the SIM card for administrative, network, business and/or commercial purposes. If you bought a wireless device for Postpay Service from Verizon Wireless that doesn't use a SIM card, and you want to reprogram it for use with another wireless network, the default programming code is set to "000000" or "123456." But please note that your wireless device may not work with another wireless network, or the other wireless carrier may not accept your wireless device on its network. If you activate a wireless device for Prepaid Service, during the first six (6) months after activation, it can only be used for Prepaid Service. The iPhone 4 is configured to work only with the wireless services of Verizon Wireless and may not work on another carrier's network, even after completion of your contract term.

Doesn't Sony's terms and conditions read as follows:

We have the right to do anything we please with the device that you are currently borrowing from us, we know you think you own it because you purchased it but that is wrong as this is just a long term lease as you can do jack **** with the device for the length of its life except what we Sony deem fit.

If you attempt to use it in the way you want to because you think you paid for it we will sue you and we have the right to upgrade, patch and generally do whatever we want with the device that you are leasing because we do not believe in customer rights. If we decide to install a root kit, remove features the console was sold with for lulz, or accidentally give away all of your personal details and credit card details because our software and security guys couldn't organize a *** up in a brewery ,that is at our discretion and by looking in the vicinity of your device you have accepted this agreement.

Basically I hate Sony customer service with passion, but love the kit they make. My PS V is now perfect with cEFW, but they really need to learn to respect there customers before they have none left as the customer service they offer sucks!

I would be somewhat cautious, CMA can autoupdate itself when connected to the internet also sony can see what your transferring, unless you have OpenCMA, but i dont think sony can force you to autoupdate your vita FW...
