Not logging IPs or establishing controls on it is table-stakes for anyone doing anything serious about privacy.

Yeah, kind of like not embedding each download with a unique ID. Oops...

Yeah, it definitely is. But that doesn't automatically mean they actually did it.
"Best practices" are moot unless they're implemented, and since the default is to log these things, then something (even a blog post from them claiming it's been done) has to exist to show it's there and doing the right thing.
