Open the iCloud pane in System Preferences and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. You may also, or instead, need to uncheck iCloud Drive.

Sorry, but I do not use Clouds....All Clouds settings are unchecked.

In fact, it seems that I found the solution through unchecking Spotlight suggestions and Bing web searches. Since then, my MBP uses 1 to 2 Mo of misc.downloads (before mails or other Internet usage), rather than 400 or 500 Mo.
