Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a point to using an external VPN provider like NordVPN or ExpressVPN if they turn on iCloud Private Relay VPN?
If you use the external VPN, does it clash with iCloud Private Relay VPN? does only one work at a time, and if so which one?
Or is the external VPN nested inside the iCloud Private Relay VPN? so in effect you are using 2 VPNs, one inside the other?
does anyone know?
this is for using both external VPN and iCloud Private Relay VPN on all my Apple devices, the latest versions of iOS, iPadOS and MacOS
thanks and regards
I have never used a VPN for any reason in over 25 yrs... not a single issue, YMMV.
It is very hard to believe you would ever want 2 VPNs...

A true VPN tunnel, for example between you and your job, or a Bank server would be of value, otherwise might be time to re-think the usage.
