The definition of atom:updated indicates that the blog post was updated 
in a way that the publisher considers significant, and further goes on 
to state that not all modifications necessarily result in a changed 
atom:updated value. [1]

That being said, it may be the case that you want to instruct Venus to 
ignore 'updated' values in a specific feed, or in all feeds.  Simply add 
the following to either the section for the specific feed, or to the 
[planet] section if you want it to apply to all feeds:

   ignore_in_feed: updated

For more information, see the overrides information in the Venus 
documentation[2].
