Seriously though, in W11 it's super easy to disable this shit.

Start Menu:
Personalization > Start > “Show recommendations for tips, app promotions, and more.” (OFF)

Lock Screen:
Personalization > Lock Screen > Change from "Weather 'and more'" to "None".

Search:
Settings  > Search  > Permissions & History > Turn it ALL off. Cloud, Work/School, etc.
