WebRTC Control

Have control over WebRTC (disable | enable) and protect your IP address.

What is WebRTC Control?

"WebRTC Control" is an add-on for the Chrome browser that provides control over the WebRTC API to protect your IP address. The extension serves as a toggle button allowing users to disable or enable the WebRTC components and prevent potential IP leaks. WebRTC Control is beneficial even while using masking services like VPN, as it further safeguards against inadvertent exposure of the user's real IP address.
