iCloud Private Relay outage resolved
iCloud Private Relay is an Apple privacy feature which sends all website requests through two separate, secure internet relays. This means that your ISP can’t see which sites you are visiting. Using two separate relays, one Apple-owned and one third-party one, means that not even Apple has visibility into your browsing history.
The service first started experiencing problems last Thursday night, with some reporting that web browsing was completely impossible without switching off the feature.
The outage lasted a very long time, with Apple’s status page not showing it resolved until the early hours of Sunday morning.
