WebRTC Blocker Firefox

WebRTC Blocker

Disables WebRTC to prevent IP leak while on VPN.

Features & Capabilities

WebRTC Blocker is a Chrome extension designed to enhance your online privacy by disabling WebRTC in your browser. WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) allows browsers like Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and Brave to enable voice, video chat, and peer-to-peer sharing without additional plugins. However, it can inadvertently expose your real IP address even when connected to a VPN, leading to privacy leaks.

This extension effectively blocks WebRTC leaks, ensuring your VPN usage remains secure and your IP address hidden. By installing WebRTC Blocker, you protect yourself from these browser vulnerabilities and maintain stronger control over your online identity. Ideal for users concerned about their privacy and security while browsing with VPNs, this extension complements VPN services like HideMyOrigin.com that offer additional security tools such as DNS-based ad blocking.

Is WebRTC Blocker Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

WebRTC Blocker requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
