My Mac Contacted 63 Different Apple Owned Domains in One Hour - While Not is Use
During a one hour period today, my computer contacted 63 different Apple domains while i was not logged on and using it. I have been trying to minimize to the extent possible the reach of big tech into my life. A full 25% of the DNS queries from one of my computers (M2 MBA with macOS 15.4) are to Apple owned domains - even though my DNS provider (NextDNS) blocks Apple's native telemetry. Additionally, since I do not use Apple for my mail, contacts, calendars, podcasts or news, I already have the routes to those Apple services blacklisted. Interestingly, my 2019 Intel MBP with the same DNS settings has less than 3% of it's DNS queries hitting Apple domains. Here are the domains Apple contacted during one 60-Minute Period When I Was Not Using My ComputerOne Hour - 63 Apple Domains • 1-courier.push.apple.com - Apple Push Notification Service • 1-courier.sandbox.push.apple.com - Apple Push Notification Service • api.apple-cloudkit.com - CloudKit, Apple's backend service for developers to store and sync app data • api.apple-cloudkit.fe2.apple-dns.net - DNS/gateway services for Apple's infrastructure • app-site-association.cdn-apple.com - Used for Universal Links • apple-relay.cloudflare.com • apple.com - Core Apple websites • bag.itunes.apple.com - iTunes/App Store purchase container • configuration.apple.com - for fetching various system configurations, including location services • configuration.ls.apple.com - for fetching various system configurations, including location services • cts.cdn-apple.com - CDN for network content • entitlements.itunes.apple.com - Checks your entitlements for apps and content • fbs.smoot.apple.com - for crash reports, analytics, or user feedback. • fpinit.itunes.apple.com - Initialization for iTunes/App Store services • gateway.fe2.apple-dns.net - DNS/gateway services for Apple's infrastructure • gdmf.apple.com - Device Management Framework • gsa.apple.com - Apple ID (IDMS) and Game Center Services (GSAS) • gsa.idms-apple.com.akadns.net - Apple ID (IDMS) and Game Center Services (GSAS) • gsas.apple.com - Apple ID (IDMS) and Game Center Services (GSAS) • gsas.idms-apple.com.akadns.net - Apple ID (IDMS) and Game Center Services (GSAS) • gspe1-ssl.ls.apple.com - related to Location Services (LS) and certificate validation (SSL) • gspe35-ssl.ls.apple.com - related to Location Services (LS) and certificate validation (SSL) • iadsdk.apple.com - Apple's iAd advertising network SDK • init-p01md.apple.com • init.ess.apple.com - Apple's Entitlement Services • init.itunes.apple.com - Initialization for iTunes/App Store services • kt-prod.ess.apple.com - Apple's Entitlement Services • lcdn-registration.apple.com - related to Software Update and (CDN) registration • musicstatus.itunes.apple.com - For checking the status of Apple Music or iTunes Match • ocsp2.apple.com - Online Certificate Status Protocol • p44-buy-lb.itunes-apple.com.akadns.net - related to the iTunes Store and App Store purchase • p44-buy.itunes.apple.com - related to the iTunes Store and App Store purchase • pancake.apple.com - telemetry • pd.itunes.apple.com - related to the iTunes Store and App Store purchase • proxy.safeBrowse.apple - for Apple's Safari Fraudulent Website Warning (Safe Browse) • sandbox.itunes-apple.com.akadns.net - used by developers for testing in-app purchases • sandbox.itunes.apple.com - used by developers for testing in-app purchases • sas-uw2-pcms.apple.com - related to purchase or content management systems within Apple's retail or media ecosystem. • sas.pcms.apple.com - related to purchase or content management systems within Apple's retail or media ecosystem. • setup.fe2.apple-dns.net - DNS/gateway services for Apple's infrastructure • st11p01su-lcdnreg.isu.apple.com.akadns.net - related to Software Update and (CDN) registration • suconfig.apple.com - related to Software Update and (CDN) registration • swallow-apple-com.v.aaplimg.com - related to content delivery or image services • swallow.apple.com - related to content delivery or image services • testflight.apple.com - for TestFlight, Apple's platform for beta testing apps • time.apple.com - Network Time Protocol • token.safeBrowse.apple - for Apple's Safari Fraudulent Website Warning (Safe Browse) • us-ne-courier-4.push-apple.com.akadns.net - Apple Push Notification Service • us-sandbox-courier-4.push-apple.com.akadns.net - Apple Push Notification Service • use1-wps-prod.apple.com • weatherkit.apple.com • wps.apple.com • www.apple.com - Core Apple websites • xp.apple.com - telemetry • gateway.icloud.com • p177-content.icloud.com • edge-062.usatl5.icloud-content.com • p104-content.icloud.com • setup.icloud.com • p150-content.icloud.com • p176-content.icloud.com • p101-content.icloud.com • mask-api.icloud.com Apple Domains I Already Block• apple.news • apple.tv • podcasts.apple.com • siri.apple.com • caldav.icloud.com • contacts.icloud.com • mask.apple-dns.net • mask-api.icloud.com • doh.dns.apple.com.v.aaplimg.com • doh.dns.apple.com • apple-relay.cloudflare.com • mask-canary.icloud.com • mask-h2.icloud.com • mask.icloud.com • p120-caldav.icloud.com
