I don't know if it's Apple (all the time). However, I can confirm this is happening.

I've had my settings updated via remote access. In my case it appears a non-Apple company/person was successfully overriding my settings, primarily by exploiting WebKit vulnerabilities. Sometimes I could see it, and sometimes I could not (e.g., I received a notification and/or I saw the setting change vs. blind override without any toggling/notification but logs showed it).

In my case I filed a report with Apple, on multiple occasions. I also made lots of copies of that data, and stored in different places (i.e., 3-2-1).

Good ol' United (Surveillance) State(s) of America.
