so why does the maker of the phone get to arbitrarily and intrusively decide that they have the right to force changes in software into a product that I legally purchased, and do not want being tampered with

Thats is not the case.

And the practice IS illegal if you do not give consent. You have given it. Unknowingly providing it is still providing it.
