Does Arlo push useless firmware updates just to reset sensitivity settings

I (we all) get Arlo firmware updates every 10 days or so. No warning, no announcement, just happens at night when I expect these cameras to work right. Every update resets the sensitivity back to 80% - resulting in fewer videos being taken that I expect, and fewer videos getting sent to their cloud. This makes me unhappy as I miss events, and it makes netgear happy because they save cloud resources (which cost money). Can netgear please please send a firmware update notification to my registered email address?
