If the user has set "Automatically check for updates" to Never, then I
think that should be respected. "Opting-out" using the Stop button isn't
ideal because the user could be charged for data downloaded before they
were able to click the button.

I think it would be better in the user-said-never-check-automatically
case to show a message saying how long ago the last check was, and
asking whether to check for updates. (So basically behave like Update
Manager in older Ubuntu releases, except tell the user how long ago the
last check was.)
