WebRTC

👉 WebRTC stands for Web Real-Time Communication. It is a technology that allows audio and video communication over the internet directly between browsers, without the need for plugins or external software. While it can be useful for video conferencing and other real-time communication, it can also potentially leak your IP address, which is a privacy concern. Disabling WebRTC in your browser can help prevent IP leaks.
