Automatic payments and One Touch Payments.

I received an email from PayPal giving details of changes to One Touch.  They have made it unnecessary to log in to use One Touch.  They say that I should turn off One Touch if I lose my device.  I don't think this is safe: I would have to remember to turn it off, along with a myriad other things I might need to do.  I doubt I would remember.  I decided to turn off One Touch following their directions, but their directions didn't work.  There is no sign of "One Touch" under "Security".  How, then, do I do it?

Whilst trying to turn off One Touch, I came across "Automatic Payments".  I checked those and found some that shouldn't be there.  I want to delete them, but there is no way to edit them that I can see.  A search turned up a method, but again it couldn't work because there was no "PayPal credit" on the left hand side of the page, or anywhere else that I could see.  So how do I delete them?

OK, I found the answer to that!  One just clicks on the appropriate logo for the company (e.g. Skype).  A button labelled "Edit" or "Manage" would have been clearer!

These discoveries have made me scared of PayPal.  I am not sure I should continue to use it.  There might be other "features" that I don't know about, and that could cost me money without my being aware of it.  Convenience is all well and good, but not if it makes the system as opaque as it appears to be.

Naturally, I searched for answers before posting this, but nothing helpful came up.
