WebRTC Protect - Protect IP Leak

Hides your private and public IP addresses by configuring how WebRTC's network traffic is routed.

WebRTC Protect - Secure Your IP Addresses

WebRTC Protect is a Chrome extension designed to safeguard your private and public IP addresses from WebRTC leaks. By configuring how WebRTC network traffic is routed and adjusting browser privacy settings, it prevents inadvertent exposure of your IP information during real-time communication sessions.

Key Features:

  • Hides private IP addresses from the public internet
  • Conceals your public IP addresses, including VPN ISP addresses
  • Routes WebRTC traffic through proxy servers, disabling non-proxied UDP if necessary
  • Controls WebRTC Media Device Enumeration API to return no device data by default

Users can temporarily enable or disable WebRTC access via the toolbar button to balance between privacy and the performance of real-time web applications. This extension is especially useful for users concerned about IP address leaks through WebRTC, enhancing overall online privacy and security.
