Here is the source blog post: Announcing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22557
“Similar to Windows 11 Home edition, Windows 11 Pro edition now requires internet connectivity during the initial device setup (OOBE) only.

“In your Chrome browser, go to Settings > Security and Privacy > Block third-party cookies.”
