<p>One of the major new iCloud features announced last year was Private Relay, which seamlessly sets up an encrypted VPN-like tunnel for all iPhone Safari traffic. Private Relay is currently available as an opt-in beta in iOS 15. Apple says that this feature means that no one in the chain — including Apple — knows who you are or what website you are browsing to.</p>
<p>It seems carriers in Europe don’t like that idea too much. Via The Telegraph (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2022/01/09/apple-fire-iphone-encryption-tech/), operators including Vodafone, Telefonica and T-Mobile signed an open letter voicing their opposition to the rollout of the feature. In fact, some carriers are already blocking support as shown in screenshots from readers below. </p>
