iCloud Private Relay Experiencing Outage

Apple’s iCloud Private Relay service is down for some users, according to Apple’s System Status page. Apple says that the ‌iCloud‌ Private Relay service may be slow or unavailable.

icloud private relay outage
The outage started at 2:34 p.m. Eastern Time, but it does not appear to be affecting all ‌iCloud‌ users. Some impacted users are unable to browse the web without turning ‌iCloud‌ Private Relay off, while others are seeing slow loading times.

We'll update this article when the outage has been resolved.

Don’t tell me iCloud is based on Windows machines running Cloudstrike!?

You may be confusing the ability to turn it off for 24 hours?
Nope. It literally had this message saying it’s out of order (unavailable) and you can use it again tomorrow. See the notification here. It was so odd I screenshotted it lol.

Since yesterday around noon PST, Safari didn't want to load anything on my iPhone. Since other browsers were working, in the evening it occurred to me to toggle private relay off and on, which seemed to have fixed it at that time. Then today I got a notification saying it was not available and "Your iPhone will be able to use private relay again tomorrow".

This morning around 11AM PST, I was having trouble loading remote content in Mail but it eventually resolved... sometime around 11:45 AM or so.

Me, since this morning (EST).
How are you people on standard time? Am I in the wrong alternative universe?
