The Jetpack plugin by Automattic does something sneaky: it auto-activates new Jetpack modules. Instead of allowing you to opt in to new modules, Jetpack cheerfully activates them without your permission. These modules can change how your site works and looks.
Manual Control puts a stop to that unwanted behavior. It prevents auto-activation of new Jetpack modules.

Upload the manual-control
folder to your /wp-content/plugins/
directory
Activate the “Manual Control for Jetpack” plugin in your WordPress administration interface
I did.
I can’t gurantee it. If they change how Jetpack module auto-activation and error handling works, it could break.
