How to hide internal IPs in Mozilla Firefox

Hello nousdeux,

You could consider to disable WebRTC to avoid internal IP address leakage :

Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)

Type in the search bar :

media.peerconnection.enabled

And set its value to false

Then close and restart Firefox.

Note: Turning of WebRTC means that services and applications that make use of it, won't work anymore.
