It's more than a "we don't do it" disclaimer. They said they're changing the revocation detection to an encrypted protocol later this year and also giving users an option to opt out entirely. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202491 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202491 (See section "Privacy protections")

Also (nitpick) it's 'over the next year' not 'later this year' given how late we are in the year those are two very different things. It could be 12 months of being vulnerable. This also does nothing for privilege they are affording their own apps to avoid VPNs and Firewalls, which has already been shown to be a security flaw (malicious software will then masquerade as the privileged software).
