Maybe the NSA is ..........
Both of mine were open one day last week and I thought the roommate hit the wrong button on the way out. Turns out the LED bulbs in the openers themselves were somehow opening them...?... Replaced the bulbs with incandescent bulbs (CFL takes too long to warm up) and the problems completely went away.

What really threw me off was the fact that these bulbs had been in there for a couple months before the problems started. Once the temps started to drop none of the remotes would work unless you were underneath the unit...and they would randomly open.

I even confirmed by putting the bulbs back in and having the problem return.
