Description
This PR adds two new config options to patch the WebRTC IP leaks:
disable_webRTC
(default:True
)Stops WebRTC from leaking your real IP address when using a proxy.
Behind the scenes, this sets:
--webrtc-ip-handling-policy=disable_non_proxied_udp
--force-webrtc-ip-handling-policy
Tested against browserleaks.com/webrtc no leaks after the patch
1 - this before the patch or now when

disable_webRTC=False
2 - this after the patch and when

disable_webRTC=True
disable_webGL
(default:False
)Turns off WebGL (
--disable-webgl
,--disable-webgl2
).This helps reduce fingerprinting since WebGL exposes GPU details. The Tor Browser disables WebGL for exactly this reason; the option is False. By default, you can enable it as shown in the example usage below.
