Question on change log, privacy, 1.1.7.24

Hopefully just trivial, but I got a bit concerned reading the following lines in the latest change log:

One question on a Mer oneshot:

  • oneshot-root.service (what are the needed services to start as root during boot, before user session is started?)

And few on Android side:

  • Support silent apk installation (for what apk:s is this for?)
  • add a patch to silence camera shutter sound (which service uses it and for what?)
  • apply patches to disable shutter sound and start needed services
  • add a patch to enable servicemanager, minisf and minimedia (what is this patch for?)

And couple on mce:

  • Implement iphb based timers for use from within mce
  • Block user interaction when shutdown/reboot starts

Sorry for these questions, but privacy matters and I just got confused because of these lines. Would like to know more :/

Edit: Adding few on Store:

  • Allow 3rd party apps to interrupt the OS update download
  • Allow use of store-client while OS update download is in progress
  • Temporarily interrupt and resume OS update download when the store schedules other package transactions.
