During Psylo development, we discovered that LinkedIn website initiates a WebRTC connection as soon as it opens. The reason is still unclear. As WebRTC can leak the device's real IP, it is blocked by default in Psylo. In fact, Psylo is the only #iOS browser that blocks WebRTC.
Since iOS doesn't provide an API to disable WebRTC in WebKit, the only way to block it is via overriding its JavaScript APIs.

@psylo That ICE stuff piqued my interest. Turns out it's not the "ICE" I was thinking of. https://bloggeek.me/webrtcglossary/ice/
