That is why companies will hire good sys admins who do their job and stay on top of the important group policy settings. This absolutely would not be missed by any reasonably competent IT dept.
I don't use windows so I don't know the specifics. If microsoft is INFORMING the user beforehand about this change (that copilot switch/policy is now available) AND DISCLOSE that in the future if you didn't touch this switch then copilot may be installed, sure, blame admin. Otherwise, this is a shitty move from software update POV
To add: Maybe you can link the change log provided by microsoft before this update that adds those switches or rules to prove that it has indeed been disclosed to the admin.
A company that's using Windows Server is not hiring the brightest mfers
