    I am not buying a new phone every day. I have already purchased the phone and now the functionality is being changed.

    You could technically stop updating. But thats not feasible since it would put your device security to peril. Until or only if we were to use a FOSS system would we be able to chose which parts of the updates we don't accept. It sucks but google can basically do anything they want to android and if you're on a proprietary vendor you're stuck with that patch
