Firefox WebRTC disabled?

[Scorpion Ghost]

So I have a Firefox browser with a proxy, and checking here the WebRTC and WebRTC STUN leaks/shows my real IP.

https://www.browserscan.net/

I've used these Firefox portables for accounts on many different sites, and I never really had mass bans and such. But Reddit seems to be a different animal. They ban you for breathing.

But reddit aside, of course, I'd like to reduce my chances of getting banned anywhere.

If I set Firefox to media.peerconnection.enabled = false then WebRTC and WebRTC STUN show disabled

My question is, does this matter? Is it an issue if it's disabled?

 

[SeasonedCode]

No, it's not an issue. Disabled is better than leaking your real IP. Also, if you are into programming, I really encourage you to take a look at the Zendriver project https://github.com/cdpdriver/zendriver

Honestly, i feel like it is a bit of a problem. I feel like real users will have their IP and webrtc align.

But, i noticed that palemoon has it disabled by default. I read that Brave has it disabled, i think Edge also. I also noticed 2 of my firefoxes that use a resitential IP from somewhere else, that i use via radminvpn and proxisomething, also have it disabled. And i use reddit on these two browsers.

On the other hand, i have google, soundcloud, pinterest, and accounts for many other sites, being used and webrtc is leaking my real IP, and i never had any mass bans. We're talking years!

I mean, if Google doesnt care, does anyone?

Maybe reddit is like the strictest piece of shit site in the world?

Yeah in the end it depends on the website: some sites check for WebRTC and some don’t, and even when they do check, sometimes they don’t care.

But when a site is checking, you’ll notice it right away.
For example, LinkedIn won’t let you create an account (or the success rate will be about 5%) if you change anything in the browser’s default settings.
You need to inspect the requests the site makes and the JavaScript files your browser executes.
For example, LinkedIn has this file:

https://static.licdn.com/sc/h/9m08psxnki0ctc2vf72rjejj3

it’s full of sophisticated detection methods they literally check everything. I think Reddit is doing the same or even more. I haven’t used Reddit in about a year.
The idea is to dig deep: every website has its own techniques.

DId you use it yourself and had some success with it ? Does it requires further modification and spoofing ?

I didn't understand well, can you please elaborate. You said you used 2 firefox portable with webrtc disabled for reddit and it worked so whats the issue ?

 

[shijin]

I once had a mass ban wave that I blamed on WebRTC leaks, never left it on again.

Was it on reddit ? Disabling it isn't a footprint in itself ?

 

[Deleted member 731332]

You need to emulate the proxy location, timezone, and prevent webrtc from leaking. After that Reddit is simple to sign up on.

I prefer to make a Google account and register with Google. Never had a problem. Even with zero cookies.

 

[Rakzs]

Best to either try a different proxy extension or use Proxifier and proxy the entire firefox application. It's far better to have it disabled than leaking but could raise suspicions.

 

[MaxGuard]

Yes it does matter, WebRTC leaks are an easy way to giveaway your real IP. Keep it disabled to lower your chances of linking all your accounts together. Did you try using hardened firefox forks? Librewolf has some privacy settings on by default.

 

[omerseme8]

use an antidetect browser instead it will handle the browser configuration for you

Most anti detect browsers have reduced profile limit, dolphin reduced to 5, Incogniton reduced to 3. Anything left which still give 10 profiles?

 

[Proxy Cake]

It does matter in my experience, depends on which website you're going for though. Reddit it is a must

 

[xploader]

You can disable it, reddit is not checking for the webrtc as of now.

 

[Lily Clark]

It’s not harmful. it’s actually safer if you want to avoid tracking or bans.

Disabling WebRTC is good if you're using proxies it prevents your real IP from leaking. It won’t affect normal browsing unless you use voice/video calls. Keep it disabled for better privacy and less risk of bans.

 

[Amelia Adams]

It only matters if you're doing video calls, otherwise you can safely keep it disabled.

Disabling media.peerconnection.enabled stops WebRTC leaks, which helps hide your real IP and reduces ban risks on sites like Reddit. It usually won’t break normal browsing, so it’s worth doing if you want better privacy.
