Apparently this is based on WebRTC [1]. Which is apparently not affected by the same origin policy. Can anyone explain why WebRTC can't be used for DDOS attacks in the obvious way (a script on a page that can open pages to any IP address could cause every visitor to that page send/receive massive data to an unrelated website, taking the target offline and/or massively inflating their bandwidth bills)?
