Icloud private relay is more like a proxy server. You have to use safari on web. A paid vpn like mullvad vpn, torguard, express vpn should work very good on mac and windows. Nordvpn and protonvpn too. It is clear that vpn do not protect against all hacking type, but makes you more private on

The Mac does have iCloud Relay available though it is in Beta mode. If you go under your Apple ID in system Preferences and interact with the iCloud Services, you should see the option. I discovered this by accident when looking for something else entirely different so it’s all good. > On

Thanks, Kliph. I tried getting my employers VPN to work the other day, and ended up having to uninstall it. I’m going to give it one more go today, and if it doesn’t work, I’ll be going to ExpressVPN. Cheers, Donna > On Apr 21, 2022, at 4:13 AM, Kliph wrote: > > Express VPN is excellent,

Express VPN is excellent, right now if you pay for a year, you get 3 months free. And if you use a already current users join link, you get a 4th month. My throat was cut last time I posted my link, so if you choose to go with them, and want that extra month, just send me a PM to my email.

Thanks, Dave and Lucas for the suggestion. My husband has just reminded me that I should be able to access our employers VPN, so I’m going to try that first, since it would be free to me. However if that turns out to be too limiting I will definitely check this this one out. Really appreciate
