Answer 1

WebRTC hosts candidates will now be anonymized using random mDNS hostnames to prevent websites from diverting WebRTC to snoop on local IPv4 addresses. The behavior is gradually enabled for all Chrome users. It's also being implemented in Firefox.

Here are the corresponding tickets for Chromium and Firefox , and the current IETF draft for WebRTC mDNS candidates.

For now, during local development you can still revert to the former behavior by setting the flag to disabled at chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-hide-local-ips-with-mdns
