Here's the difference,
In the art world there is (or at least, was) some level of secrecy in the transactions and parties involved.
Apple would give up all information it has about you to law enforcement at the slightest suspicion of some shenanigans happening. They also comply with all KYC requirements from the law. That's how (among other things) they "actively prevent" people using their platform for criminal activities. Heck, at their scale, they must have an entire team devoted to doing just that.
