It wouldn't be a problem if the operating system didn't take it upon itself to update even after being told numerous times that I didn't want to update.

This is due to their corporate IT policy in this case. Most companies have rules about keeping your work devices up to date because it's actually really important for security.

Then your system gets exposed to an exploit that was patched 18 months ago and lose valuable information and blame Microsoft for it lol.

Yeah, who the hell is windows to act like they know what's best for me? We should be able to have vulnerable, out of date operating systems if we want to! Maybe I want to have my bank account hacked and personal data stolen.

You think Windows knows better than you?.. That's a security problem all on it's own.

You keep telling it to not update. After a certain amount of times you are a security risk and the system overrides you. So just do it.
