This is why I didn’t get really excited about WebRTC when I looked into it before.
And the problem isn’t with WebRTC, it’s with the current infrastructure of the net that prevents some clients from just communicating directly without some element of centralization. And some of it’s our own fault.
A cynical way of looking at it might be that WebRTC is being allowed because it helps scale the web while still being dependent on a central weak link of control.
