Iphone automatically updated to 14.2 WITHOUT permission

My wife's phone automatically updated this morning to 14.2 without her permission. We have been intentionally NOT installing this update because of the tracing app. Also I found my phone screen on this morning, no one touched it. It was on the sign on screen and this CAN NOT HAPPEN unless Apple is in total control of our phones at all times.

iPhone 7, iOS 11

Automatic updates was in the off position at the time. Now with the new 14.2 it automatically turned it on and I just turned it off along with automatic downloads.


You are probably correct saying they do not make money from free OS updates, BUT now they can track every move you make and there is no way of stopping it. Big Tech is attempting to get total control of the people just as they are helping the Communist Chinese in China track every move their people make. NO DIFFERENCE.


Also how could my screen turn itself on when no one was near it. I just noticed it was on when I happen to be passing by.
