WebRTC Leak Shield requires following permissions:

privacy: This allows the extension to change the webrtc settings of the browser to prevent WebRTC IP Leak

storage: To store configuration file and current state of the extension

management: This extension is standalone and does not require any other extension to function but other extension such as VPN extension can embed the functionality of this extension in their extension.

Even with a vpn on and this extension on, some sites can still read my IP. Also it recently asked for access to my mic and camera! That may or may not be legit but it's not explained anywhere. And it didn't used to do that. Works sometimes - is invasive (mic and camera) without explanation

Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact. If you have any needs, please contact us via the following contacts Whatsapp: +1 (248) 896‑8035 Telegram: t.me/harryysandersonn

Breaking upon closing and opening of browser now all the time, chrome and slimjet, need to remove then reinstall for it to protect, or at least show protection. Not sure what is going on, recent happening, been working well for a long time. will change rating if fixed. use a site that measures a webrtc leak to check, also can shut off webrtc on some browsers, best to use a separate profile if you need to block webrtc, as some web things will not work if blocking webrtc.
