  Apt (https://github.com/Debian/apt) is a package manager, and its very concept is to connect to various repositories of software and get a list of everything available and allow you to easily install the software.

This is not "pinging" as described, for some nefarious purpose it is simply retrieving data that you are requesting by doing an apt update.
