No. DropBox tells that, but it is false. This morning I had to
manually upgrade it. Apparently it auto upgrades just for very minor
changes, but not to pass from 1.1.X to 1.2.X. The same happens, for
example, with ESET Smart Security: it updates the engine for minor
changes, but when they switched from release 4 to release 5, it didn't
even warn me.

I'm glad we agree.

Please, continue.

I don't object to that. I object to that being part of Emacs. By all
means, build an installer for GnuTLS and put all automatic checking
you want on it. Make it part of the Windows startup if you want. But
don't make Emacs connect to Internet every time it starts just to
check that yes, that GnuTLS that you are not really using for anything
at all is still safe to use (or ignore).
