They remind you, and implore you, telling you that it can be a security risk, but they don't secretly update in the background or stuff like that. Fairphone has also always been very supportive towards installing non-stock android OS on their devices, (including pure Linux distros for phones running well enough).

They even have a list on their forum with OSs you can install. https://forum.fairphone.com/t/operating-systems-for-fairphones/11425

That's helpful, thank you. This kind of crap from Samsung drove me insane.
