As as I said in my other comment: you can unplug your ethernet cable, and on Win 11 Pro and above there’s an “I don’t have internet” button you can click.
You can still easily bypass it with other methods, like unplugging your ethernet cable. Even if you don’t have an ethernet cable you can unplug, the WiFi screen has an “I don’t have internet” button on Windows 11 Pro and above. Not sure about Home, but there are other alternative ways. It’s still really shitty they keep trying to force this on people.
Businesses would already have access to domain join and would provision accounts, so it’s not relevant to them.
