Whoa Peer to Peer connections with strangers is scary stuff that almost no one would volunteer for. I get the bandwidth reasons to do it but everyone should know this is peer to peer before connecting and know the risks of being hacked/stalked as they expose their IP to strangers. I would put a huge disclaimer about it, which I didn't see on your site.

Huh, I (naively, I guess, although this seemed largely true of my playtesters) thought that folks would assume that this was how it worked. The site does mention that it uses WebRTC although it certainly is not a "huge disclaimer" right now. I am going to see if I can rejigger the site to just always use my TURN server for now.

I'm also happy to chat more (here, or you can email [email protected]).

It's WebRTC. It's all over the web and well implemented. What are you exact concerns? IP isn't GPS

I agree. No issues in exposing your IP. What exactly would be the "fear"? You connect with someone, then they use your IP to file a request with law enforcement to go get your address then use that info to "stalk" you?

I pushed a change to route everything through my server for the time being.

If you don't want to potentially cause people to get into serious trouble I would caution you to do anything that reveals the IP address or any other information about the participants. I've run a cam site (ww.com/camarades.com) for close to two decades and the privacy of your participants should be your very first and top concern.

I pushed a change to route everything through my server for the time being. Thanks for flagging.

YW and thank you/props for being this responsive.
