I have a master branch, a dev branch and a number of feature branches from

In general this is considered harmful. Why do you rebase your branch
from time to time? For example in git.git, topic branches are based on
master, then merged to master when they are ready, but they are never
rebased.
Yes, but my understanding is that it's only harmful if you publish the
branch (or dependent branches) which are being rebased.
So rebasing is very bad in these circumstances, but I fail to see why
it's bad if these branches are kept private.
