"All your files in iCloud" is checked by default in Setup Assistant (after upgrading, not reinstalling) to 12.4. 

GDPR nightmare TBH.

Configuration profile to disable that? Any other way?

As you noticed on Slack, I figured it out. It's a bit simpler than that :) Jamf custom profiles don't need all the metadata from Profile Editor. 

 

This will do: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>SkipiCloudStorageSetup</key> <true/> </dict> </plist>
