Apple is facing a proposed class action lawsuit accusing it of fraud and false advertising over a security flaw in iCloud Private Relay, according to 9to5Mac.
The suit was filed by the Clarkson Law Firm, which accuses Apple of deceiving iCloud+ subscribers with its marketing of Private Relay, the feature meant to shield a user's IP address and DNS records while browsing in Safari.
Clarkson previously took Apple to court over the delayed rollout of personalized Siri features, a case that ended in a $250 million settlement.
The lawsuit points to a set of WebKit issues that security researchers detailed earlier this month.
Since WebKit powers every browser on iOS, the exposure is not limited to Safari.
