unload does add this but it alone is not sufficient to disable a launch daemon. 
RTFM.

If you properly unloaded it then it should be fine. If it re-appears then 
reexamine whet you did and didn't do properly. 

Honestly, try reading the technotes on launchd rather than complaining about

things do work. But complaining and hyperbole over not doing things right isn't 
going to get you anywhere.
