That's what hackers do in popular stories, right? In reality, most cybercriminsls just don't care that much (they usually use Tor browser, though). I mean they mostly use discord and telegram (both unencrypted).

Serious "hackers" are usually state sponsored now, or members of mature groups.

They don't care, I would say they don't know.

I saw an article where they analyzed the leaked IP addresses from a breach forum, and some of the top ten were Surfshark and iCloud Private relay.

what's wrong with icloud private relay? It uses a 2-hop architecture so it's probably more private than any single-hop VPN.

It's good, but it's funny to think about cybercriminals running Safari and an iCloud+ Apple account.
