<h3>How to disable WebRTC in Google Chrome?</h3>
<p>WebRTC cannot be fully disabled in Chrome; however, it is possible to change its routing settings (and prevent leaks) using an extension. Two open-source solutions include <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/webrtc-leak-prevent/eiadekoaikejlgdbkbdfeijglgfdalml">WebRTC Leak Prevent</a> (options may need to be changed depending on the scenario), and <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock-origin/cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm">uBlock Origin</a> (select "Prevent WebRTC from leaking local IP addresses" in Settings).</p>
<h3>What about other browsers?</h3>
<p>Chrome on iOS, Internet Explorer and Safari does not implement WebRTC yet. <a href="#browser"><i class="fas fa-link"></i> But we recommend using Firefox on all devices.</a></p>
