PSA: Apple’s Private Relay can leak your real IP address

Mysk wrote in a post on X that they chose not to report the issue to Apple because “our past experience with Apple tells us that reporting this issue would involve months of delays, inconsistent communication, and in some cases, denying the issue’s impact entirely.”

Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment. 

Mysk and his colleagues develop a private browser called Psylo, which they say now has mitigations that prevent users’ IP addresses from leaking when using Psylo.
