I thought exaggeration was something reserved to CNN and other news outlet. But here we are.
I think this is a real concern, and users should know what the PC is doing, but half of HN post are about how we can share data among ourselves instead of relying on central distributors.
Your next post should be about how WebRTC steals your bandwidth.
- opnitro 11y agoSee the difference is that you explicitly use WebRTC. Distributed systems are great you decide to use them. Someone else turning it on for you is a little dishonest.
- drewcrawford 11y agoNo you don't. You visit a website. The author of the website explicitly uses WebRTC, not you.
- opnitro 11y agoI suppose, but you're still making the choice to visit the website. I guess you could design a site that secretly used webRTC to waste someone's bandwidth, but: A) I don't think that has ever/will ever happen. B) Even if it did, it would still be wrong.
