Private Relay keeps turning itself off without any warning

I keep turning Private Relay on, then finding out after days or weeks later that it has turned itself off without any warning or notification. I decide to check and it is turned off again. This has happened at least three times without any kind of warning or notification

Greetings Gregorygregoryf,


Are you traveling to a location where Private Relay isn’t available? Checking About iCloud Private Relay was a great step. Taking a look at this resource, though we would expect that you be notified when the feature is available again. 


In addition, if you travel somewhere Private Relay isn't available, it will automatically turn off and will turn on again when you re-enter a country or region that supports it. Private Relay will notify you when it's unavailable and when it's active again.


Are you using Private Relay for a specific network or for your device as a whole? Are you noticing this with Private Relay on all devices that you use your iCloud account with? 


Thanks.
