Amusingly, your comment is the actual lie. iCloud backups are an opt in cloud backup solution. They are not enabled by default and myself (and many others) have never used them.

I've set up four iOS devices from scratch (new numbers, new Apple IDs, new everything) in the last two weeks and iCloud Backup is indeed on by default.

It's possible your understanding is out of date.
