Any hints on getting the browser makers to enable us to disable it?
I gave up on Chrome because it was preventing my mac from sleeping because "webRTC has active peer connections". Before de mistifying its inner workings, you may want to address why we'd want it and why it messes with power management.
You'll never get that. You'll just have to opt out of it. i think there is an extension or two to turn it off in chrome. Maybe that will fix your problem? Also I think there is just a bool to turn off in firefox as well.
