Introduction: Closing the Hole

If you want total privacy while using a VPN, you **must** address the WebRTC problem. Luckily, disabling it is a simple process that only takes a few seconds. In this guide, we'll show you how to 'plug the leak' in every major browser.

The Fix

  • Firefox: Type about:config, search for media.peerconnection.enabled, and set it to **False**.
  • Chrome/Edge: These browsers don't have a simple switch. You should download an extension like **'WebRTC Leak Prevent'** to block the vulnerability.
