Is this even legal? (lemmy.world)

I just got this popup while playing New vegas. I don't even use chrome, i've switched to firefox. How can this be allowed? Also, this is Win10

They mean Microsoft will keep sneaking things like this into updates. We can stop them installing misfeatures if we know they're coming but Microsoft can at any time just roll out a new update with different adverts in. Unless we stop updating there's no way for us to select between legit updates and unwanted ads.
