Or don't buy a machine with that bullshit.

Edit: I'm not sure why I'm being downvoted. My comment is still valid. If the argument is "you can't, all the machines now include it," then it's fucked up. Like today's TVs which all of them are smart, and that's fucked up.

If you've got a CPU from the last 6 years or so, you've probably already got one.

Hence I will never get rid of my 2017 laptop that doesn't qualify for Windows 11. The day Windows 10 stops updating for it is the day I'll install Linux in it.

x86 cpu.

There's no bullshit on Arm and RISC.

ARM is entirely made out of bullshit. It's almost impossible to buy a ARM device that isn't boot locked to a particular OS.
