I don't believe that's the case. Just listened to Craig Federighi on Jon Gruber's podcast say that the intent is that the relay is regionalized. Your IP will be anonymized, but it will at least correspond to the general location you are in. Possibly this was just a bug in the beta?

It's very buggy so far.

Apple Beta's in July are still very early. If it still happened in late August I might be concerned.

Yep. I've found the setting seems to exist in two places, and it turns itself back on at times (that said, it's a beta):

1. Settings -> Apple ID -> Private Relay

2. Settings -> Network -> Use iCloud Private Relay
