Re:How to create a video call application with WebRTC on Monday June 15, 2020 @02:27AM (#23524368)
In real life, the STUN server rarely works, and thus, the myth of this peer to peer utopia was never realised, and why webrtc did not receive any attention

Dont need to see who wrote this, clearly a very junior engineer with a lot of opinions and not a lot of experience.
For one, I think this is good news. I work in a field that exposes me to a lot of dubious ways to collect peoples data. Especially what they are doing in their browser. You would not believe how many pieces of software you are using daily that do this.

A lot of these are chrome extensions. If you are honest, then I do feel for your situation. But, I am also happy to see that Google are finally stepping this up and looking after their users by not exposing them to potentially malicious services.

Thanks for this question and for everyones answers. I am a software engineer, and have a friend, female, aged 30 from a different department at work who is going blind and afraid to research anything. I think this will help a lot.
