Comprehensive Control Over WebRTC in Firefox
WebRTC Control is a specialized Firefox addon designed to secure your IP address by managing WebRTC functionalities. This tool provides a straightforward interface with a toggle button that allows users to enable or disable WebRTC with ease. Importantly, it does not feature an options page or additional settings, making it a simple yet effective solution for users concerned about IP leaks while using web-based communication services.
WebRTC, which facilitates real-time communication through browsers, can inadvertently expose users' real IP addresses, even if they are using VPN services. WebRTC Control addresses this vulnerability by disabling key components of WebRTC, including navigator.getUserMedia, window.MediaStreamTrack, window.RTCPeerConnection, and window.RTCSessionDescription. This addon is particularly useful for developers and IT professionals looking to maintain privacy while utilizing web applications.
