Automatic ATS exception for *.apple.com?

问题

I was wondering how a sample app (https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/samplecode/sc1791/Introduction/Intro.html) from Apple was able to establish "clear" http connection without any App Transport Security exception. I thought initially that it was the AVFoundation automatic exception for encrypted HLS mentioned during the WWDC 2016 (lecture 706). But I can't reproduce it with my app.

There seems to be an automatic ATS exception for clear http request to *.apple.com. The very simple ios app code below shows funny results:

#import "ViewController.h"

@interface ViewController ()

@end

@implementation ViewController

- (void) loadUrl:(NSString*)url {
    NSData* data = [[NSData alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:url]];

    if ( data == nil ) {
        NSLog (@"Failed %@", url);
    } else {
        NSLog(@"Success %@", url);
    }
}

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.

    setenv("CFNETWORK_DIAGNOSTICS", "3", 1);

    [self loadUrl:@"http://images.apple.com/v/ipad-pro/d/built/styles/main.built.css"];

    // P.S. images.apple.com = 23.204.108.40
    [self loadUrl:@"http://23.204.108.40/v/ipad-pro/d/built/styles/main.built.css"];

    [self loadUrl:@"http://stackoverflow.com/"];
}

- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning {
    [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}

@end

The output log is:

The network diagnostic file shows that the first http request passed and two others were blocked by ATS (if -1022 is indeed ATS)
