Updated January 5, 2024: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
With privacy and security restrictions, we have implemented a user-level IT admin policy for admins to choose whether some or all users in the company can use Collaborative Annotations. Currently, there is a way to turn Annotations ON or OFF through cmdlet Set-SPOTenant-IsWBFluidEnabled
This change is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID: 92502

[How this will affect your organization:]
IT admins will be able to turn ON or OFF Collaborative Annotations from the Teams admin center in Meetings --> Meeting policies.
