Windows just changed my desktop wallpaper and re-added the search bar without my permission after an update

In my view, this is unacceptable...
They changed my background (previously there was a default blue window), placed an icon in the bottom corner of the screen that read "Learn more about this photo", and re-added the search bar that I had previously removed.
Fortunately, I don't have to deal with this on a daily basis.

Do tell about this. Are there any downsides? Any compatibility issues with hardware or software?
Only downside is it tends to be a bit behind on feature updates which is probably a good thing. All hardware and software is completely compatible. The other bonus is it gives more fine grained controls over telemetry that home and pro don’t.
Okay this sounds like a major win win. I'm guessing security is probably better too. I'm building a new PC soon and this is looking incredibly enticing.
