I have just upgraded to iOS 15.0.1 and it seems that, under Safari's advanced settings (Settings > Safari > Advanced) you can now select to proxy WebRTC sockets. Selecting this toggle no longer allows your real IP to leak when you're using iCloud Private Relay, at least according to the fingerprintjs demo site. Someone please check this out and let me know if you can verify?
 
Is it a good idea to enable this iCloud private relay beta feature then? is there any negatives to enabling it?

It basically just attempts to hide your IP from trackers (or websites and trackers, depending on your setting). It's not as good as a full VPN but it is handy, well it will be when it works properly.
