WebRTC Leak Shield Extension
Disable WebRTC and prevent IP leak.
VPN Extensions can hide your IP address but they cannot prevent IP leaks caused by WebRTC. WebRTC Leak Shield protects you from this security threat. This is a must have extension for protecting your privacy on the internet.
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. (For example: Hoxx VPN). This permission is needed to ensure the communication between WebRTC Leak Shield and other extensions which are using its functionality.
