### 󠀁[Does exactly what it says it does (even 5 years since last update)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-exactly-what-it-says-it-does-even-5-years-since-last-update/)󠁿

The simplicity of the plugin helps it be lightweight & easy to use. That also means
the one line of active PHP code that it consists of (it then being what WordPress
recommends in its current documentation per https://wordpress.org/support/article/
configuring-automatic-background-updates/#disable-emails-via-filter) is likely to
continue to work exactly as expected unless WordPress were to completely overhaul
its setup regarding this (with there appearing to be no plans for this.) Especially
considering it’s using a filter so it’s even more flexible if things were to change
in the future (won’t outright break things due to a code error beyond WordPress 
doing a fundamental change to a core function like add_filter or __return_false &
that’d then break the majority of plugins & themes out there [they’d need a good
reason for doing so & it appears they obviously have no plans for doing that either.])
