You may leak confidential information.
To prevent WebRTC leaks RingVPN’s servers are fast, private, and encrypted.
The main disadvantage of WebRTC is that all devices and browsers in communication must know their IP addresses, which can lead to leaking your real IP address.
If you use a VPN and want to browse anonymously, this can be a real problem for your privacy.
WebRTC, which stands for Web Real-Time Communications, is an open source project - presented by Google, Mozilla and others - that allows for real-time, plugin-free communications via a Javascript API. This system facilitates browser-based browser applications for voice calls, video chat and file sharing. VP8 is the codec currently supported for WebRTC. WebRTC uses a server called Web Conferencing Server that, along with a STUN server, is required to provide the initial page and synchronize the connections between two WebRTC endpoints.
The most advanced browsers are unfortunately vulnerable to WebRTC, as this technology is often used, for example, to create a video stream between two computers when visiting an online chat site.
These are the browsers which have WebRTC enabled by default.
RingVPN puts your privacy first, and has designed Chrome and Firefox applications that disable WebRTC by default and protect you from WebRTC leaks
However, since this technology is relatively new and up-to-date, we recommend disabling WebRTC in your browser in addition to using RingVPN.
