If they told people it was just to add more "telemetry" and ads, they wouldn't install it.
That was my first instinct haha. Came to comment "new telemetry"
do they give you the option to not install? i remember windows just updating without ever asking anything
There are ways around it, but yeah, I think they pretty much get forced on most users afaik.
There are songs tools which will disable update altogether, Windows Update Blocker... But you know, use at your own risk or whatever.
