 John, let's, Jeff has a question, we've been talking about privacy here, actually talking about it with FastMeal. Jeff asks, he says, I recently read a Macworld.com article about Apple's private relay and how it differs from a VPN. The author, Jason Cross, came close to but didn't directly answer a question I have concerning this new service. This information sent and received via iCloud private relay encrypted such that I can safely access my bank account via Safari from a public Wi-Fi hotspot. Okay, so the very short answer, and this would be my opinion because there is no definitive answer to this, but the very short answer would be yes. There are two things to me that matter when accessing something from a public network, right? Now, iCloud private relay is its stated purpose is more to protect you from being tracked in a variety of ways by your local network and by the places that you visit, right? And anyone in between. But there's two pieces that matter to me. Number one is what data am I sending across? Like once I'm connected to my bank, can anybody see the data? And then the second thing is, does anyone know that I'm connecting to my bank, right? And could they potentially, you know, redirect where I'm going, a man in the middle attack, those sorts of things. So number one is never a problem because all of our banks require us via our browsers to use encrypted connections. So the data that is being sent back and forth between me and my bank or you and your bank is encrypted and no one gets to see that except you and your bank. So that's good. And of course, iCloud private relay added to that also no problem. Where iCloud private relay or a VPN would help even more is with the second thing. And that is the DNS lookup, the connection that's happening to see what site you're going to try and visit. And with a VPN or Apple's iCloud private relay, all of that information is sent across the secure tunnel. So the local network at your coffee shop or whatever is not responsible for resolving that lookup. They don't know that you made that lookup. They don't know what site you're connecting to. So yes, in that sense, iCloud private relay works similarly to a VPN in that it solves those two problems for you. So yeah, I think iCloud private relay is very safe for banking activity and lots of other things too. So, you know, I'm a big fan of what Apple's doing with iCloud private relay. If that hasn't been obvious in the last three episodes or two episodes, I suppose. Yeah. And a VPN would cause this as well is I've had this happen before. So if I use private relay, I suspect this would happen again is some sites, when you come to them, they're like, Hey, I haven't seen you before. You got to authenticate. Excuse me. So that may happen more often. Yes. If you use a VPN or something like that. Because as far as it knows, you are a new computer. That's right. You're coming from a new IP address. That's a good point. Yeah. You will be coming from one of the addresses, the exit node addresses of the private relay instead of wherever you actually are. So yeah. And I do, I get that with some of my banks often where it's like, oh, you're in a different location. My IP address changes more frequently now with my fiber connection on Consolidated than it ever did with my Comcast connection. I probably kept the same IP address for years, easily months, probably years. But with fiber, I'm finding it changes fairly frequently. I don't obsess about it. There's not too many things where I see this as a problem, but I will occasionally get exactly those messages like, hey, you're coming from somewhere new. Can you do your two factor thing for me? And it's like, sure, I'll do the little dance. It's fine. Yeah. Yeah. Interesting.
