VZ Protect Recover options no longer free?

Am I the only one that noticed the change in today's (August 20, 2014) update to VZ Protect will require a "Total Protection" place to keep the recovery features working? Apparently there's a grace period, and an open enrollment period for the next month or so, but after that you'll have to pay $10/month for this protection plan.

I don't want the total protection insurance. I just want the virus protection and recovery features.

Do I have to move to an alternative (e.g., AVG)?

Lookout Mobile Security is an excellent app and actually catches more then the VZW App.  AVG has always had a little too much overhead for me.

Well, AVG has had a good reputation as a company for many years.

I do wish it were more obvious what the different features did, and which ones you have to pay for. That's true of a lot of other stuff, too. I have cleaners that come with anti-virus, antivirus that come with cleaners, and so on.
