I don't understand. What does dst being apple's IP imply? It's connecting to Siri server which is supposed to be an Apple's server. Am I missing something?


Yea, i'm not sure why they bothered to try to obfuscate the dst address at all, the article mentions siri...


Haha.. good one.

(They redacted IPs at the top of the screenshot, but they forgot to redact the hexdump at the bottom that just happens to contain same IPs).
