init-p01st.push.apple.com and *-courier.push.apple.com requests come from apsd(8), the Apple Push Notification service daemon. It's attempting to get push notifications, rather than some sort of phone home telemetry thing.

Now, I do have an issue with apsd specifically on Big Sur, but "sending phone home packets" isn't it.
