WebRTC Control Firefox

WebRTC Control

By: Bernard
Have control over WebRTC (disable or enable) and protect your IP address.

Features & Capabilities

WebRTC Control is a browser extension designed to give you complete control over WebRTC functionality to safeguard your IP address from leaks. WebRTC, which enables browser-to-browser real-time communication like voice and video chat without plugins, can expose your real IP address even when using VPNs. This extension disables key WebRTC components such as navigator.getUserMedia, window.MediaStreamTrack, window.RTCPeerConnection, and window.RTCSessionDescription to prevent such leaks.

The extension features a straightforward toolbar icon that toggles WebRTC on or off with a single click—no complex settings or options pages to navigate. This ensures quick and easy control over your privacy while browsing. WebRTC Control is an effective tool for anyone looking to enhance online security and keep their IP address protected from unauthorized exposure.

User Reviews

Reviews praise direct WebRTC enable/disable control but warn that reliability is inconsistent and IP protection is not guaranteed. Firefox support seems outdated and some sites may break. Users also report intrusive ads. Overall, it's helpful for WebRTC management in some scenarios but not dependable and potentially disruptive.
Pros
  • Easy to toggle WebRTC on/off for better control of WebRTC behavior (beneficial for WebRTC-dependent apps and transfers).
  • Improves WebRTC handling and workflow compared to relying on other methods/browsers.
  • Works as advertised in some contexts, providing direct WebRTC enable/disable functionality.
Cons
  • Reliability is inconsistent: it doesn't always work and often requires verification with a WebRTC checker.
  • IP leakage protection is not guaranteed; some reviews say it doesn't hide or leak the IP as expected.
  • Firefox support appears outdated or nonfunctional for the latest Firefox versions.
  • Can break certain sites (e.g., banking sites) or disrupt normal browsing.
  • Contains intrusive advertising/prompting behavior that interrupts the user experience.

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

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

WebRTC Control is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
