Private Relay and VPNs are not the same. VPNs purport to encrcypte all internet traffice. Private Relay only encrypts Safari traffic. Private Relay offers more privacy than a VPN. With a VPN, you have to trust the VPN provider to not log your data. With iCloud Private Relay, Apple and its relay partners are not able to log your data because the proxies are blind.
