Updated iPhone and two iPads yesterday. None of them had Apple Intelligence turned on after the update completed. Maybe it happens to some people but I doubt Apple deliberately re-enabled it in the update.
Seems to only affect some users. Also, not claiming it was on purpose or with malicious intent. I’m sure it is an unintentional bug.
But, it also goes to show that Apple can tweak your settings at will, ignoring your prior preferences, which I think we can all agree should not happen.

It is also not the first time this happens:
- iOS 18.3 https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/01/ios-18-3-macos-15-3-...
- iOS 17 https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/blog/hotforsecurity/ios-17...
