Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

A browser extension that alerts admins to new 'enabled by default' settings in their Google Workspace console
A community-maintained dashboard that tracks and summarizes Google Workspace feature rollout defaults
An automated script tool that periodically audits and reverts specific Workspace settings to a user-defined 'off' state

“The Workspace Intelligence settings for Google Tasks will be enabled (ON) by default for all users in your organization.”
