Unlike android-tabs, on brave-core we block only 3rd party fingerprinting. We need new design to add ability to set blocking fingerprinting and cookies fully.

@karenkliu has a design for that and it is detailed here: #6831

Can you cherry pick the design you need from #6831? If not please LMK and a specific design can be added here.

[SergeyZhukovsky]

we are going to redo the shields UI and add appropriate controls

[srirambv]

+1 from https://community.brave.com/t/unable-to-disable-webrtc-in-brave-android/122548/2 for not able to disable WebRTC on Android

[SergeyZhukovsky]

That will be fixed in context of that issue #6831

[anthonypkeane]

@kjozwiak can you please re-test

[srirambv]

This is still an issue. Irrespective of Fingerprinting settings (standard/strict) IP address is still shown. On the contrary desktop blocks it irrespective of FP setting

This issue is still live - has there been any progress towards a fix?

[samartnik]

@srirambv is it still an issue? WebRTC is not tied to fingerprinting option anymore, but controlled by WebRTC IP handling policy option.

Yes the issue can be closed based on @pes10k comment https://bravesoftware.slack.com/archives/C0816QH3R/p1618496425224300?thread_ts=1618487465.215300&cid=C0816QH3R
