Local IP would be your 192.168.1.whatever. Apple won't get that unless they capture it on the device. They would otherwise only get your public, nat'd IP with normal tcp/ip.
Local IP isn't identifying, but it's a weird thing to include. And the paper clearly shows that being sent to Apple.

handset (i.e. not of the gateway, but of the handset itself) is
sent in a POST request to /lcdn-locator.apple.com:

So no the article isn't wrong. I suggest you give the paper a read (or at least a skim) if you're going to try and claim they are wrong about something.
