Reduce internet utilization / disable automatic updates

I am using Ubuntu 17.10 on a connection that is limited to 200kb in speed. Normally this should be enough for my use, but Ubuntu is eating up the bandwidth).
When I run pactl list sink-inputs I see:
No protocol specified
xcb_connection_has_error() returned true
Home directory not accessible: Permission denied
Connection failure: Connection refused
pa_context_connect() failed: Connection refused
One reason I think is the update manager. How can I disable that one to make no automatic package list updates anymore?
And which other standard functions might eat my bandwidth?

The illustrations at Change application volume from terminal show in the screenshot under Other Settings & Scheduling Updates where you can alter the currency of collecting Update data. Disable Automatically check for updates and that will keep Update Manager from using bandwidth when not needed.
