A library to detect your local IP address via WebRTC on the web page.
All modern browsers now require special flags to allow leaking local IP address.
Set enable-webrtc-hide-local-ips-with-mdns to disabled on chrome://flags page.
Or run chrome with arguments:
--flag-switches-begin --disable-features=WebRtcHideLocalIpsWithMdns --flag-switches-end
Set media.peerconnection.ice.obfuscate_host_addresses to false on about:config page.
Set Disable ICE Candidate Restrictions in Developer menu.
