Would you be open to elaborating a bit on how that’s set up on your network? :)

I'm particularly interested in how they introspect https:// targets.  Apple *IS* using
https:// (or other TLS-secured connections), right?

I see no https in the XML right now.

Only these hostnames are referenced:

appldnld.apple.com
appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net
apsu.apple.com
