iCloud Private Relay outage hits iPhone Safari users

Apple’s iCloud Private Relay encrypts user data to protect privacy

Apple’s iCloud Private Relay that protects user privacy while browsing, is currently slow or unavailable, leaving some Safari users unable to search.

iCloud Private Relay, available as part of iCloud+, encrypts your data so that rogue sites can’t track your location. Specifically, it sends Safari requests through two separate, secure routes, so that no one can see where you are or what sites you’re browsing.

At time of writing the issue has persisted for around 14 hours. Apple says it began on Thursday, July 26, at 2:34 P.M. Eastern.
