If Apple is tracking IDs how is that not anti-privacy?

In fact arguably they should implement signed reciepts so they don't have to track which apps you own. As it is they know all the apps you own, and probably even when and how often you run them.

Instead they could send you a cryptographically signed receipt and then not actually keep track of which apps you own. When you want an update they verify the receipt. That would be more privacy oriented than what they have now.
