The ads in the OS are disableable as well. They just aren't off by default, and are labeled something like "software suggestions" in the settings app.
valid information to know. i don’t think the ads can be turned off during the first boot setup process though, which is a key distinction here.
You're correct, you have to find the settings (not near my pc but I think they're in taskbar settings) after initial setup and you'll see their "suggestions" until you do.
