Ask Kurt: Is Apple Private Relay an alternative to a VPN?

Got questions? I’ve got answers. I’m a tech expert known over the past 20 years as Kurt the CyberGuy helping you make sense of the digital world around us, including our online privacy.  Have you ever wondered if you need a VPN (virtual private network) to protect your online privacy and security?If you have any Apple products, you might have heard of a feature called Private Relay that promises to do just that.  But is it really a good alternative to a VPN?
