Security question. Disabling WebRTC.
#1
Hello dear developers and community!

Excuse me for the stupid question, but why it is not recommended disabling WebRTC, Canvas Fingerprint and HTML5 AudioContext? I thought it was, on the contrary, good for privacy. I tried to find information on the Internet myself, before asking, but did not find anything specific.

Where can I read more about Cent Browser options?


Thank you Blush

There are disadvantages to disabling them. For example:
WebRTC is using by some video chat/meeting sites.
Canvas Fingerprint is using by some HTML5 game sites.
AudioContext is using by some video streaming sites to control sound parameters.
Not all of these sites are using them for tracking users, some are for other purposes.
So we have to recommend not enabling them.
