Comment:

 Replying to [comment:5 mcs]:
 > One stop-gap measure would be to disable this feature via pref. It looks
 like everything is controlled by the Navigator::HasUserMediaSupport()
 function whose implementation is:
 > {{{
 >   return Preferences::GetBool("media.navigator.enabled", false) ||
 >          Preferences::GetBool("media.peerconnection.enabled", false);
 > }}}
 > so we could set media.navigator.enabled=false (we already set
 media.peerconnection.enabled=false).

 Yes, correct. bug_16328 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-
