The closest you can come is if you use a laptop or a desktop equipped with a WiFi card. It seems that MS recognized the risks associated with metered connections (any connection where you are charged by the data consumed rather than simply a monthly fee) and made allowances to allow filtering of updates if you specified a metered connection.

Please note that you cannot do this with a wired Ethernet connection. As a result, I will only install Win-10 onto laptops and I won’t trust my data to any of them.

I expect that to change any day with them, given their horrible track record.

Where do we sign up for the class action suit?!

I’ve seen that as well. My main two systems are wired and as such I can’t utilize that option. And I’m like you, I won’t entrust any of my data to a Windows 10 computer. Ain’t gonna happen.
