After the move to WASM you can no longer use TCP/UDP sockets in your extensions and must rely on WebSockets/WebRTC instead, which is a shame. See https://developer.chrome.com/docs/native-client/migration/ (see the "PPB_TCPSocket and PPB_UDPSocket" section).

Is UDP-over-WebSocket built in to WireGuard, or is this really tunneling browser <> WS/UDP proxy <> WireGuard?
