They're not showing IP addresses, they're showing /8 CIDR blocks, that's very coarse granularity.

The real information is that Apple is downloading them. Why would they care about granularity?

If Apple didn't want that information to be public, they probably shouldn't have downloaded 45TB of data a day from a service they have no paid agreement with.

I don’t disagree, but that’s not responsive to my (or GPs) point. GP implied the aggregate is what made it OK: if anything that made it more sensitive (not everyone would bother to aggregate and look up who owns the IPs).
