No - setting up an iPhone from new doesn’t even require an iCloud account. If you set up iCloud it will enable backups, but even then you can disable them without disabling ‘all of icloud’ as GP claims.

The fact that iCloud is not required to activate does not change the fact that iCloud is on by default and iCloud backup is also on by default.
