A Mac user discovered their M2 MacBook Air contacted 63 different Apple domains in one hour while idle, representing 25% of all DNS queries despite using NextDNS to block telemetry. The domains included services for push notifications, CloudKit, iTunes/App Store, location services, crash reports, and various Apple infrastructure components. Notably, an older 2019 Intel MacBook Pro with identical DNS settings only had 3% of queries going to Apple domains, suggesting newer Macs may have increased background communication with Apple services.
