Working perfectly, Excellent Addon.

Seems to have been doing the job well & my browser add-ons (both Bing, Google & Vivaldi are lit up as though Christmas trees! Yet WebRTC Leak Shield, just as the rest, was carefully picked out & installed. Most all of mine are typically security "blockers", those which fights ads & cookies & having the ability to make calls from most, although prefer to use mic only. Anyway, have been using WebRTC Leak Shield for over 3 years and no issues, so highly recommended by me!
