This caught my eye in the latest MaximumPC, but Google found this topic first, on How-To Geek:
 
"How to Stop Windows 10 From Uploading Updates to Other PCs Over the Internet"
 
 

Windows 10 includes a new peer-to-peer download feature for updates and Windows Store apps. By default, Windows will automatically use your PC’s Internet connection to upload updates, hiding the option to disable this five clicks deep in the operating system.[/size]

 
You can set this feature to "Off", "PCs on my network" or "PCs on my network and the Internet".
 
The article also includes a link to MicroSoft's FAQ on the subject:  Windows Update Delivery Optimization: FAQ (EN-US link)
