Can you turn off the remote app killswitch?

Reminds me of the loss of functionality for the Amazon readers to auto-read files. It was done by Amazon and pushed to all hardware/software.

I don't believe iPhone or Android devices have a user-facing toggle... there might be some way to hack it out, but I'm not sure.

I don't think it's ever been used on either device, so it hasn't exactly been a burning issue yet; the stated purpose is only in the event of a highly malicious application.
