datamining-resist

I can't find an option to disable the DPS G app from auto updating. How do I disable this "feature"? I like the info provided by the app but the cloud side of things is simply data mining in a pretty dress. I've blocked the app on the firewall but it updated again last night. Clearly, the app still has a back door somehow and I need it closed. Is my only option to replace the power supply with a competing product?
