WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is a browser technology used for video chats and live connections. It relies on internal protocols that can force your browser to reveal your actual public and local IP addresses to a third-party website, bypassing the VPN’s encrypted tunnel entirely.
This feature intercepts and blocks the internal browser commands designed to fetch and display your true IP information. By managing these API calls, it ensures that only the masked IP address assigned by the VPN is ever made available to sites utilizing WebRTC technology.
It eliminates a major privacy vulnerability inherent in most modern web browsers, guaranteeing that your real location and identity remain concealed, even when using WebRTC-enabled applications.
