ogra and I figured this out but didn't update the bug, sorry.

whoopsie uses g_file_set_contents() which writes to a temporary file and
then renames into place - fairly standard practice. It'd be unfortunate
to have to abuse the software to avoid this.

Title:
  Choosing not to report crashes and errors setting reverts

Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products:

Status in lxc-android-config package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in whoopsie package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in lxc-android-config package in Ubuntu RTM:

Bug description:
  Possibly related to bug 1389407
  Reported on Askubuntu [1] and confirmed here on a retail bq handset with no modifications (no app installs, only OTA updates).

  Steps to reproduce:-

  System Settings -> Security & Privacy -> Diagnostics ->
  Untick box next to "App crashes and errors"
  Leave system settings.
  Wait some time - the AU report suggests an hour, I waited less than that

  Go back into System Settings  -> Security & Privacy -> Diagnostics
  Not the tick box is ticked again.

  I would expect the tickbox to remain at whatever I set it to.
