Check my profile, I've been around more than most here; I've been using Apple products for a very very very long time. Check my post history if you'd like to see if I'm a troll; hint, I'm not.

Having said that preamble, all of my trust with Apple is gone at this point, perhaps irretrievably so.
I’ve got you by two years and completely agree with you! What happened to Apple?

I assume this is the future of these forums? Every time Apple announces a privacy feature, people will complain they don’t trust Apple.
Private, as long you do not upload your possibly not approved images to Apple servers. They are still all private, but it might happpen, they need to be checked by some clerk at Apple control to be accepted as private.
...The clerk will not tell anyone about it, so everything is ok, as long as they are not flagged.
 
Haven't really seen anyone else talk about this, but is Private Relay supposed to work over cellular or only when on Wifi? Cause the moment I joined the beta and went to turn on private relay, I immediacy got a message about T-Mobile not supporting it...the toggle is still on, so I'm not even sure if it's on and doing anything. I've seen no changes with it on or off.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the forums, and everything to do with Apple's policies.

Apple needs to decide if they are going to be the worlds nanny and cop, or a technology company that produces great products. They cannot be both.
 
Anyone tested it? How fast (or slower) it is?
I used it on macOS. It would randomly stop working here and there. Sometimes you couldn't even activate it.

But when it did work and when I set it outside my geographic area, I was getting New York IP's (and I live nowhere near New York), so it was at least ghosting where I am physically.

Nothing is private anymore on Apple devices when there’s a surveillance algorithm running on all Apple devices with the latest update, this is just a dumb feature with the word “privacy/private” for marketing.

true but i think it is just to screw up ad base companies so they will be having hard time to track users.
 
In the Public Beta I turned it off. It got REALLY annoying because I constantly couldn't open websites because of it. Also annoyingly have to manually load imagines in almost every email. Turned it off also. So, so far...not good.

Yeah… I don’t trust them anymore! Later on they will come up with something that would be for our “own good” but will read and analyze all you are doing with your “encrypted“ data.
It still blows my mind that Apple squandered over a decade of goodwill and consumer trust by pulling that CSAM scanning crap. It will never be the same again; even if Apple claims to be doing a complete 180, the trust is gone.

Way to screw up one of your biggest advantages over your competitors, Apple.
 
People might think you're joking but Cloudflare (the people Apple partnered with for this feature) have a history of taking websites offline that they disagree with politically.
They dumped sites like the Daily Stormer and 8chan. Good for them!
I wonder what triggered that response..
After checking my Apple logs, it looks like he was viewing the following websites...

Apple still has mine.

For wherever it’s worth.

Correct. No matter what they do going forward, it will never be the same. No matter what they say, people will still wonder, what are they not telling us, what are they doing behind the scenes that we don't know about, what are they working on that they will announce right before launch so no one will have time to object...
