At what point was it where updates stopped always being a good thing? Updates seem to either make things more bloated, or lock you out of using exploits to gain further permission to install / edit the software.
It's to the point where I'm hesitant to update my S7 to Nougat. What purpose does this really serve if the phone is working fine already? Security updates against something that will never matter anyways?

it's the opposite. widely published exploits have made updating more important today than it was 15 years ago.

I know you're probably joking, but as far as I've seen, updates have taken away features from consumers, added DRM, cause you to brick, lock you out of homebrew, rape the UI and more.
I never update straight away more matter if it's computers, phones, video game consoles, DAWs etc. Countless times I've seen people update hastily then adamantly search out ways to downgrade.
