Title: Is WebRTC going to change the world? Post by: interlagos on October 09, 2013, 01:48:38 PM In short, WebRTC is a new peer-to-peer technology developed by Google with support from Mozilla to enable a broad range of services like secure video conferencing, anonymous file sharing and even distributed site hosting - all within your Web browser.
"WebRTC Game Changer | LAS s29e01 " http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2NAsUf0Ewc The relevant part starts at around 1:10:00 in the video above. What do you guys think? Title: Re: Is WebRTC going to change the world? Post by: pedrog on October 09, 2013, 02:15:24 PM So, it's similar to RetroShare?
Title: Re: Is WebRTC going to change the world? Post by: interlagos on October 11, 2013, 06:05:46 PM So, it's similar to RetroShare? I've never used RetroShare or anything similar, but from a quick look at Wikipedia, the difference seems to be that with WebRTC you don't have to install and manage any software. Having latest Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox would be enough. So simplicity and usability must be a big plus for adoption, not so sure about security though, but that can probably be worked upon.

Well, the video in the OP is called Linux Action Show, so it can definitely run on Linux too. Ubuntu and Mint come equipped with Firefox by default, so no prob there. What is critical is how they keep the private key secure (if they even have one). As long as private key is hidden well enough it doesn't matter if it's javascript or something else that handles the rest of the protocol. Maybe integration with Bitcoin hardware wallets might come in handy. Title: Re: Is WebRTC going to change the world?

Maybe I'm wrong, if is does, I'm very interesting to know the details, thanks much. Title: Re: Is WebRTC going to change the world?

If the system someone developed something he knows how to circumvent the protection.
