Turns out I have already done this, and I'm already on the "Release" channel.
I just keep getting annoyed at the pop ups "do you want to install the updates". I'm on the verge of switching it over to "never look for updates". Has anyone here had any close calls where being one version back before updating truly was a security risk?

What it needs is a "silent" switch.
In about:config there is an app.update.silent setting - not sure whether that would fix it.
Otherwise, I couldn't find anything to help stop this - did a DuckGo search and browsed through about:config settings.
Then I found that you might be able to block the popup with ABP (AdBlockPlus) with "select an element to hide". Not tried it out though. To test it, you would need to set it when the popup occurs.
